Limerick!

Is there any other form of poetry as fun as a limerick?  I think not!  Although.... maybe teenage break-up poetry, that’s mighty entertaining to read and snicker at, but otherwise, the Limerick wins the fun prize.

I was looking through some old pictures last weekend, trying to find a way to tie them together, and that’s when it hit me.  A limerick!  Perfect!  So…

There once was a lad in a skirt,

Who was little more than a wee squirt.

He twisted and swayed,

He danced and he played,

‘Til the squirt’s skirt began to invert.

There once was a girl with blond hair

Whose wedding “do” we did prepare.

We took lots of pics

So we could re-fix,

(But we should have tied Jack to a chair).

There once were two kids at a fest

“Please! Candy Sand art!”  they professed.

Their bottles they filled

Then their tongues they did gild

Hope their dentist is not too distressed…

Although he has many fine charms,

Have you seen my husband’s forearms?

They set him apart

They’re state of the art

They trip my internal alarms.

Oh. Yeah.
