Laughing Along With A Limerick

It’s Monday morning and time for a limerick or two! Send in your own or here’s a prompt for you –

DARE

Here are a few limericks to brighten your Monday:

Ritu:

Oh, what a ghastly sight!
Wish I’d not switched on the light
Unplucked and uncoloured
No, please, just stay covered
You really did give me a fright!

Paul Mastaglio:

You gave me a fright,

When you called round the other night,

Dressed in black from head to toe,

I couldn’t tell if you were friend or foe,

Never before had I seen such a sight.

John Reynolds:

There was a young lady from Hove.
Who burnt her hand on the stove.
She shouted o god
Then she said sod,
And threw it into the road.

There was a young man from Kent.
Who ate no food in lent.
Apart from a tart
He was meaning to start
In secret, alone in his tent.

Christine Mallaband-brown:

A woman jumped up in a fright!

Her husband had been in a fight.

He had been beaten

By a tiny little kitten

Which had scratched him and taken a bite!

Rae Reads:

This is not a limerick but a parody written by a seventh grader:

Jack and Jill went up the hill

To work out all their muscles,

Near the top they met old Drac

He loved their red corpuscles.

Val Fish:

He’d never had such a fright

He turned a deathly shade of white

When mother in law

Who’s with us no more

Came calling that dark stormy night.
