Write your Limerick!

[Steve Valentine]

There once was a man from Nantucket
Who walked through the fields with a bucket
He picked up all that see saw
Every flake and every spall
And what he didn't keep he would shuck it

Thanks.....I am glad you like it.

Writing these can be fun!

There once was an Indian dude
Whose wife seemed a little bit rude:
When he showed her his knapping
She wouldn't stop yapping
About how he should get them some food.

Top notch limerick mano.

The Washington Post runs a weekly contest in its Style section called the "Style Invitational". The requirements this one week a while ago were to use the two words Lewinsky (The Intern) and Kaczynski (the Unabomber) in the same limerick. The following winning entries, remember, were printed in the newspaper.

#1.

Lewinsky and Clinton have shown
What Kaczynski must surely have known
That an intern is better
Than a bomb in a letter
When deciding how best to be blown.

#2.

Said Clinton to young Ms. Lewinsky,
"We don't want to leave clues like Kaczynski,
Since you made such a mess,
Use the hem of your dress
And please wipe that stuff off of your chinsky."

#3.

There once was a gal named Lewinsky
Who played on a flute like Stravinsky
'Twas "Hail to the Chief"
On this flute made of beef
That stole the front page from Kaczynski.

There once was a "droopy drawered" buffoon
In high hopes of finding an arrowhead soon
Over he bent
To pick up some flint
And the whole world he did moon


Another good reason not to let someone cut in front of you while walking a creek or field!

mano - that's just to damn good right there for your own safety!

You inspired me a bit, so here goes nuth'n

Then their was Mary
Who really was quite contrary
Until she met mano's freind Larry
Decided to marry
Now have an ugly kid named Gary, who finds all of these damn ugly points that he decided to name after himself. Ooops, a little long at the end there

My on the spot follow-up to yours. Hope you don't mind a little borrowed influence...

[Rockit Man]

There was a man that drove a hummer
Who made his living being a plumber
He bent over to pick up a bassett
His pants didn't stay on his assett
And that sight was a real bummer

[manoman]

This is a great thread! Everyone should give it a whirl. Questor....nice one! Who the heck was this Gary guy anyway?
