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?

There was this man in the Navy
who loved eating gravy
but with the years
hair grew in his ears
and his body hair was nothing but wavy!

Hi everyone! We'd love to have a go at writing a limerick as a group 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

There was an old woman from Rome

Following #84
There was an old woman from Rome
Who wandered away from her home
Her position was scary

now i'm confused, the last word doesn't go with smugglers or bunglers?

I thought it did all end in lers and end sound is the same for each?

 

[Vinylted]

There was an old woman from Rome
Who wandered away from her home;
Her position was scary
Until she met with Mary,

 

[Pommyoz]

and travelled along to the Dome.

The Crown is a big brash Casino
Its cold so make sure to wear merino;
But I only wear goat
She said, with a gloat,
Flaunting her goodies at Al Pacino!

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

I once met a guy named Bart
Who had a wonderful talent for art;
His selection of scenery
Amongst all of that greenery,
Was a model baring her all from the start.
