Do all lifesavers wear budgie smugglers?
Maybe they are girlie attracting bunglers;
Or do they swim in the nude?
Hope not, I'm a prude.,
And have no wish to see his travellers..
now i'm confused, the last word doesn't go with smugglers or bunglers?
 
Hi everyone! We'd love to have a go at writing a limerick as a group :D You'll need to post the next line that will follow the last comment in the thread.

Here are the basic rules:

5 lines

Lines 1, 2 and 5 rhyme.
Lines 3 and 4 rhyme
Distinctive rhythm
Usually funny


Here is an example of a limerick:

There was an old man named Jake,
Who ate only spuds and beefsteak,
He drank, and he smoked,
And told dirty jokes,

And died young at a hundred and eight.

I'll get us started:

There was an old man in a tree...
There was an old man in a tree
who only wanted to see
if the fruit at the top was ripe and ready to sell
but alas with a yelp of pain he fell
a big bee had bitten him on the knee
 
Following #84
There was an old woman from Rome
Who wandered away from her home
Her position was scary
 
There was an old woman from Rome
Who wandered away from her home;
Her position was scary
Until she met with Mary,
 
There was an old woman from Rome
Who wandered away from her home;
Her position was scary
Until she met with Mary,
And travelled along to the Dome.

Well done all.

Now a New first line..

The Crown is a big brash Casino
 
There was a grand little nana
Who was pretty handy with a spanner
Did some work on a lawn mower
And thought it had some power
So she called out to her little niece anna
 
Hmmm? Last comment in the thread?

I just knew I would make him mine
Though to keep him would be out of line

... oops, looks like I'm too slow AGAIN!

OK, I'll just finish this one on my own & crawl back into the bushes.

I just knew I would make him mine
Though to keep him would be out of line
On this magical beast
With mine eyes did I feast
Then I left him, still free and so fine!

I once met a guy named Bart
Who had a wonderful talent for art
His selection of scenery
