Phil
They're Southerners, thus queer!
Hidden text
[Rosie] Take that, old chum :-)
I Say, Porter!
I wish I were a Welshman
Software
Brandishing a leek
irach
I'd be "Leek King" of Casnewydd
KagomeShuko
And
win races like a Greek.
Giertrud
I wish I played cassette tapes
Software
With Dolby Stereo sound
CdM
But I have just my eight-track
KagomeShuko
And half a lousy pound.
Spangle
I wish that pair would go away
irach
You know just who I mean
Phil
I think that same thought every day
Whootz
It's not the king and queen.

I wish a were a candlestick
KagomeShuko
Hot wax poured down my body
Software
Depilating furtively

What a load of rot. Can we please have some sense in limericks, if that's not an oxymoronic thing to ask?
irach
I wish I was a ninja's sword
Phil
Most dangerous to wield
Spangle
I'd snicker-snack 'til daybreak
Software
While talking to the shield
Spangle
The vole deserves a mention
Simons Mith
For its green and frugal life
irach
As also its fecundity

Who'd be the vole's poor wife?
Spangle
Let's not forget the porcupine

It takes much more than 'point and shove'

Chubby as chubs can be
Raak
A little maggot on a hook
Spangle
Then supper - yes sirree

Now its time to talk of tench
Spangle
But not of Angelfish
irach
A tench is just a would-be carp

And makes a tasty dish.

Consider now the salmon
Darren
Which jumps upstream to spawn
Simons Mith
It has no need for smutty books
irach
Or any brains, just brawn
penelope
The cod, a northern waters type
irach
Is tasty? No, that's just hype

Than a baby's dirty dipe.
Was struggling for a rhyme.
Giertrud
When the Northern Sea gets stormy

The humpback whales start singing

As the the cod find to their cost.

Battling the icy waves

I wish these piranha lacked teeth
Software
So they would not scan so badly
Raak
While swimming by the Barrier Reef
Rosie
And masticating madly.
Simons Mith
The way to treat a gentleman
Phil
To keep him on his toes
Software
is to tap him on the shoulder
Spangle
And recite some bawdy prose
Spangle
A common chap, it must be said
Raak
Stands firm upon the ground
Knobbly
A baseball cap atop his head
Rosie
His belly large and round.
penelope
A man with just a bit of class
(or
class
, depends on where you're from as to how you say it)

Beats a man who just has none

He'll play down his credentials

I wish I were an aardvark
oblig.

Munching down on yummy ants

It's
such
a cutesy word

A wolverine, I've heard.
KagomeShuko
Among the forest, lives something
Hidden text
It seems that sometimes when people try to rhyme the 1st and 3rd lines, the poems don't scan and they forget that the 2nd and 4th lines should rhyme.
Raak
With twenty thousand eyes
irach
But the twenty thousand cataracts
Software
Cause twenty thousand styes
KagomeShuko
The telly has a broken screen
Raak
The rain drips through the roof
Spangle
There's dry rot in the window frames
Knobbly
And mildew on the pouffe
Spangle
I wish I had a winning line
Software
For my football pool
do they still have those?
KagomeShuko
I'd keep my secret to myself

And count my cash, and drool.

I've bloody won the jackpot!

In my office sweep
Software
I got the winning ticket
Phil
The prize? A blow-up sheep :-(

My di-ri-gi-ble ovine
Raak
Gives me a lot of fun
Rosie
Confusing all the sheepdogs
Spangle
Sensors (please excuse the pun)
Giertrud
Yesterday was my birthday
Whootz
The 27th one
KagomeShuko
Everybody ate lots of turkey
penelope
And learned how to write Glowworms
I wish I could knit sweaters
Software
Or even crochet scarves
KagomeShuko
My bottom might not be so cold
Spang
I'll not do things by halves
penel
This trend for shortening player's names
Spang
Deserves a special mensh

It makes me an Egyptian god
Ros
But I am still a wench.
Phi
I feel like I'm a little Greek

I'd take a curing water bath
SO looking forward to the rhyme match on the last line ...

To get rid of this pain, dear

To measure stuff by hand

But in case of more precision

Use a rubber band!
KagomeShuko
For a pet, I want a unicorn

A griffon or centaur

I wish I were a shovel

In a brawny stoker's hand

Feeding hungry furnaces
CdM
Ah! Wouldn't life be grand!
penelope
I wish I were a Christmas pud
too early?
Spangle
Made by Blumenthal
Giertrud
Maybe I'd taste really good
KagomeShuko
If made in the fall!
FGZstar
It seems the snow has cleared at last
Rosie
Or turnèd into slush
penelope
Both arms, one leg in plaster cast
Raak
Take heed: on ice don't rush!
Spangle
The honeymoon is at an end
