Limerick writing Mark 4 (animal, vegetable and mineral)

There once was a chipmunk from Chester

Here's some pasties (vegetable) that we've bought

And a chocolate log

I'd like a hot dog

Do you fancy a vegetable torte ?

Said old Jock to the chaps in support

You know these stones just don't taste right,

Olive oil on my lips.

Limericks are slightly more flexible than previously suggested :

A limerick is a humorous poem consisting of five lines. The first, second, and fifth lines must have seven to ten syllables while rhyming and having the same verbal rhythm. The third and fourth lines only have to have five to seven syllables, and have to rhyme with each other and have the same rhythm.

I'd rather have chips

Ahem! A little reminder

(Think we're losing the pom-di-poms again, so here's the template:

Di pom di di pom di di pom di
Di pom di di pom di di pom di

Di pom di di pom
Di pom di di pom

Di pom di di pom di di pom di

The black syllables are emphasised, the not-black ones are not.

(Amend ti) Send for help! Screamed the swedes, What a sight!

Send for help! Screamed the swedes and the marrows

With rubies and emeralds and diamonds so bright

And the pudding is starting to smell

The mice just daren't

The sprouts are all burnt

The dog has eaten the turkey as well

Oh no! The cat's found the tinsel

And the butler ran off with the malts

Two black cats took flight

Bats blinked in the light

Light shone on walls coated with salts

The door creaked open in the Silver Vaults.

The terns have just turned plain nasty.

The vet is agin it.
