Limerick writing Mark 2 alphabetical !

Never forget your good manners

I've retrieved this post from Elegran from the first Limerick thread - I'm sure she won't mind if it's used again now

'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.'

Sorry, Shysal - back to your first line.

Nor to use them with all your Nannas

I dunno about the 4-line things.
We, of course, are making things FAR more difficult!

Never forget your good manners
Nor to use them with all your Nannas

Now let's get this straight

Not to be too late

Nicely dressed in pyjamas

On Sunday we walk in the park

( ana Here are some being sung - you hear the rhythm better than wnen it is written down. - www.youtube.com/watch?v=7blpH-wfGnI )

(O?)

Only heading for home when it's dark

We rest on the benches

On the benches we rest up (Sorry, I came back to the thread after a few days holiday, and forgot it was alphabetical)

Or reflect how we've messed up

Observing the fit make their mark.

Perfection is coming our way

Probably with a slight delay!

Peruse the rhymes

Take care of the times

Protect all the times (*Elegran*?)

(why not?)

Producing a lim'rick a day (See, I am back on alphabetical. It won't last)

Quite careless of all the letters (Couldn't resist)
