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!

Suggesting another try starting with the end rhymes:
….better,
….wetter,
….got,
….spot,
….get her.
...lot better
...yacht wetter
...pantaloons got
embarrasing spot
...not get her.
...I felt a lot better
...employ a yacht wetter
When her pantaloons got
An embarrassing spot
...I just could not get her.
…anyone having a better (or wetter?) suggestion?
Prince Andrews statement after the Fastnet-race 1985 as he (still somewhat seasick and with a hammering hangover) met with Fergie in Cowes, Isle of Wight (I was there so I know):
Last night as I felt a lot better
I swore to employ a yacht wetter
When her pantaloons got
An embarrassing spot
I knew that I just could not get her

Back to basics, romantic setting, 'Red sails in the sunset...'
While sailing along in the breeze,
Wind steady and life is at ease,
As the sails bulge, I kiss her... Mills and Boone soppy limericks?
I whisper, "I miss yer"
She pukes and goes weak at the knees
I live as a modest young maid
Drink tea while I wait to get laid
And I'm hoping one night
FFS!
Not to be so uptight
With my saucy Aussie from Ad'laide
Dear Chalky, I think that you're mad,
offended, and that makes me sad,
Dear Marc, there's a rumour
You've no sense of humour
What's more - you're nowt but a lad :-)
I frequently eat Parma ham
With lashings of ketchup and jam
For dessert I partake
Of fried pumpkin and hake
No wonder I look like Saddam
I love a nice fragrant Thai dish
It's my very best favourite wish
To dine on Pad Thai
And sip on a Mai Tai
While savouring galangal fish
My armpits are starting to smell
My feet are quite rancid as well
My toes has turned lose
They're stuck in my shoes
I'm blaming this hot, humid spell
I'm off now to get my car mended
The bonnet has somehow got bended
The fog lights are smasht
My rear fender is gashed
All thanks to my being rear-ended
If I had more money, and time
I would give greater thought to this rhyme
As it turns out I don't
And so therefore I won't
Try to do more than dash off this line.
As darkness slides down o'er the hills
I set up my illegal stills
The moonshine I make
I ship over the lake
And sell by the old disused mills.
We need to be true to the cause
And do duty without any pause
Nor thought of the self
Or of grasping for pelf
Let us march to the drumbeat of wars!
Last night he went out to hunt beaver
Just armed with a dreadful meat cleaver
He arrived home today
In complete disarray
Empty-handed and singin' 'Night Fever' .. like you do
Tomorrow the clouds will obscure
My view of the glorious Ruhr
For I am so high
