The Limerick Guy

Limerick obsessive

[The Limerick Guy @Limerick_Guy]

During his 34th Year
The poet, Mr Edward Lear
Without taking a vote
Some nonsense he wrote
& now the limerick is here.

The Snowman was made entirely from frost
In the city he found himself lost
“You don’t look so cool
I pity you, Fool”
Said Mr T in an unlikely #RIPOSTE

[Mary David-Snow, Writer @sweetiepiesnow]

#LimerickRhyme (optional) prompt for September 4th is #RIPOSTE.

A limerick is 5 lines, Lines #1, #2, #5 rhyme & are longer. Lines #3, #4 rhyme and are shorter. Metric as in anaPEST.

Traditional or Variations welcome!

#RIPOSTE

Edward, his team mates once said
had feet like 2 plates of lead
but much to his credit
they nicknamed him #EDIT
because he scored every goal with his head

@sweetiepiesnow @thewriteprompt @PromptAdvant @PromptList Of the concert I started to tire
4 hours of Earth, Wind & Fire
During #SEPTEMBER
I did suddenly remember
I had meant to be at church choir

He could use a few more followers, please! 😁

#LimerickRhymes #PUBLISH
To PUBLISH is to bring out a book
A great writer for myself I mistook
So i wrote down some words
But all were absurd
And my publisher as fast slung his hook

[The Limerick Guy @Limerick_Guy]

@sweetiepiesnow @thewriteprompt @PromptAdvant @PromptList My version:

A limerick must have 5 lines
1,2 & 5 should have rhymes
Then lines 3 & 4
Must rhyme some more
To avoid any poetry fines

@RobbieRinder Rob Rinder, the best judge in the land
Had his phone snatched straight from his hand.
The crime gave Mr Rinder a shock
But he dreamt of the thieves in the dock
Where he’d say “ You’re mine now boys. Do you understand?”

@RachelWoollett Prince Phillip’s spirits are reported as fine,
And we’re reminded he is aged 99
As he sits on a ward
Feeling quite bored
He’s hoping NOT to make tomorrow’s headlines

@richardosman Its really good.
But the star is not Bill or Ted.
The star is Dennis Caleb Mcoy.
Just wait.

@PamAyres A poet once wished for a needle
For all people from Chigwell to Cheadle
So we can take off the mask
then set a new task
to ensure that next year will just be dull

It's Edward Lear's birthday which makes it #LimerickDay
Do your worst (or preferably your best).
To start you off here are the rules of a limerick:
-
A limerick must have 5 lines
1,2 & 5 should have rhymes
Then lines 3 & 4
Must rhyme some more
To avoid any poetry fines

Today is #LimerickDay, so what better way to celebrate #EdwardLear & our favourite thing #Beer, than with this. 👴🦉🍺

There was an Old Man with an owl,
Who continued to bother and howl;
He sate on a rail,
And imbibed bitter ale,
Which refreshed that Old Man and his owl.

There once was a happy Blood Biker
Who strapped on his load so much tighter
He hit a bump in the road
And off flew his load
So now his bike is much lighter
#LimerickDay
Can you come up with any more Blood Bike related limericks?
