Fancy writing a group limerick ?

I found myself all over yawning

When digging my garden this morning........

Drank wine 'til she wee'd and she wee'd!

Fed up with sobriety

The bounds of propriety

If you have an urge to exceed

Well done, NK. What about...

A limerick is just what you need...

And decided his hairpiece was quite passé

Which he glugged down with a chirrup

So he took hold of his syrup

Who one day was feeling quite droopy

New Limerick.

There was a film star with a toupee

Fell on the floor
And got to our feet feeling flustered

With our feet in a bath full of custard...
Got confused, cos it should have been mustard
We hopped to the door

Got confused, cos it should have been mustard

Dead Fred? No way, hosay!

With our feet in a bath full of custard...

Thank you, Ariadne I was starting to think I had killed the thread.

I think you need to get your coat too, feetle. Now no-one wants to play!

How about whole limericks again? Will start an alternative thread.

feetle sometimes I do love you! Scansion is so important.

Just waiting until it is light.

Dactyls, people, dactyls - triplets in musical terms. Dactyls are so called because your fingers all have three joints, and they have three syllables, with the stress falling on the first one.

So there...

(If anyone is confused about how limericks should scan, say to yourself:-

Di pom diddy pom diddy pom pom,
Di pom diddy pom diddy pom pom,
Di pom diddy pom, (or Diddy pom diddy pom)
Di pom diddy pom, (or Diddy pom diddy pom)
Di pom diddy pom diddy pom pom.

I'll get my coat too.)

Eyelids full of sand

Cups of cocoa in hand,

And present an amazing sight
