Multiple Lines Per Player: A Limericks Special Edition
help
Here's an experiment with the Limerick form. In this game (and this one only) it is permissible for players to contribute more than one line each to each limerick, just to see if we can increase the level of coherence in this much-loved form as practised in the Morniverse. Everything else is the same as normal... Take it away!

I just looked at my last post... "Was rotten was fruit"?? Oi, somehow I read it as "Was rotten WITH fruit", which you must admit makes a lot more sense... now back to your regularly scheduled players with talent.
My first attempt at this manner of Limerick writing. Here goes.

[Phil] A splendid effort - first or not.
What's next?
Well done Phil! (but as always winner must start the next, mustn't they... ;-)
Ok then, here goes for another acrostic:

Yet I still
My fortune is yet to be made

Neither rust nor moth doth corrupt
Even taxes must...
Yet I still....
