Carrying on .........
This road sweeper gloomily pushed his barrow
Through the streets, wide or narrow
Keeping an eye out
For treasures ,no doubt ( to keep the shape Granny)
Which he'll grab with the speed of an arrow!

We've just had a day out in Didling
It didn't just rain, it was piddling
My brolly blew inside out
The kids pulled a pout

The trip wasn't even fair to middling.

When the fire powered up I got a fright

When the fire powered up I got a fright
I was knocked to the base of the basket

Sorry to be fussy but limericks have a definite shape ?
lines 1,2 and 5 -around 9– 12 syllables
lines 3 and 4 should have 5 – 7 syllables
So.....

In the basket I fell
I couldn't help but yell
And just couldn’t wait to alight

I‘d love to go white water rafting
Although it means lots of hard grafting

In the water I'd fall
But I was born with a caul

In the water I'd fall
But I was born with a caul
But I’d really much rather be crafting.

Time for cover at night
Plants in danger of blight

The weather's so contrary there's no doubt.

The problem was, how to get her down again
A crack mountain rescue team
Tempted her with ice-cream
So she laid on the stretcher and didn't complain.
