Darren
He'll throw the whole lot in the bin.
Juxtapose
I once met a maid from Regina
Limerick challenge: clean
Rosie
Who cherished her old Morris Minor
Will that do, Juxt?
irach
She kept it so clean
Darren
It dazzled the Queen
irach
Whose Bentleys are not any finer
...
[Juxtapose] There...clean as a whistle...
Marc
True Lim'ricks are not to be clean,
penelope
It's tempting to show the obscene
Raak
They must also be witty
BTW, Radio 3 is currently having a competition to compose serious limericks. Maybe we could try one here?
Rosie
Coherent, not bitty
Software
And polished right up to a sheen
Raak
Not only by bread doth man live
Going for a serious limerick. Titter ye not!
irach
Not so much to receive as to give
Rosie
Which lifteth the soul
Software
For those on the dole
penelope
Or those with pock
ets
like a sieve.
Maybe I should apologise...
Rosie
There was a young man from Peru
(pen) No, no, not at all. Pretty good for a Dutch speaker.
Knobbly
Who bought a bright pink cockatoo
Simons Mith
With very long legs
irach
That laid polka dot eggs
Marc
While waving the tail - oh so blue
The parrots of course!
Software
There's thunder and lightning about
CdM
Don't panic. There's no need to shout.
Guido Fawkes
I heard you first time
irach
There's no reason or rhyme
Marc
It’s Thor who have just found his stout
Rosie
My uncle, who lives in Cleckheaton
irach
At snooker, has never been beaten
Darren
His all-out attack
Software
By using the black
Marc
And pot it with super cue treatin’
Marc
The balls that were hit with his cue
Rosie
Followed a path that was true
All right, doesn't quite rhyme.
Juxtapose
His peerless precision
it does in America, Rosie
Raak
Was met with derision
Mac
But from the crowd there came a very loud "BOO"!
Scansion Police
*Ahem*, I think, Mr Mac, we'll just draw a line under this one and call it a warning....
