Post only one limerick at at time and preferably one which is humorous. I'll start:

There was a young lady from Perkins
Who was so fond of sweet gherkins
That one day at tea she ate eighty three
And pickled her internal workin's

No entry from me, just a thank you for teaching me what a limerick is.

^ You are quite welcome!

There was a young woman named Wright,
Whose speed was much faster than light.
She set out one day,
In a relative way,
And returned on the previous night.

A lady once triplets begat,
Named Nat and Pat and Tat,
Though it was fun breeding,
The trouble was feeding,
Cause there just was no tit for Tat.

A naughty young lady in Tude
Was in the garden, completely nude.
A man came along
and if I'm not wrong,

...you expected THIS line to be rude!

The girl didnt come from Nantucket
But sometimes she wished that she had
Because all of the things she had heard about it
seemed to rhyme with rude words that were bad


meh...tried to be original, but thats all I got.... :)

There once was a [person] from [place]
Whose [body part] was [special case].
When [event] would occur,
It would cause [him or her]
To violate [law of time/space]. I think the rest of us is just copypasting... so you rule. :-)

One hint: rhyme order should be AABBA, and the number of syllables are also follow a rhythm.

There once was the Duke of Doubt
Seeking truth he did wander about
when find it did he,
no truth could he see.
For his doubt did his blindfold be.

(original, not copied/pasted)

There was an old man in Fort Worth
who cried to himself: "I'm not worth!"
So he lay down in bed,
Being always so sad,
Till he finally parted this earth.

About certain Duke you tell I must,
Obsessed with drugs and pelvic thrust,
And when the aliens arrive,
He was the first to run and hide.
Although 3D Realms would sure decline.

Unfortunately I've never been to Limerick.

There once was a person on GOG
Who said that my rhyme was a dog
He made a good point
So I puffed on my joint
As I read the whole thread on the bog.

Boom/tish! :)

There was a young man in New York
who wandered around with a fork;
whomever he'd find
he pricked from behind,
which upset the folks in New York.

There is a thread on Gog about limericks
That no one could ever mimic
It started off fine
But after some time
It turned into a bit of a gimmick...

:p
