There once was a guy named Jack Elliott... Who's funny bone hasn't broken yet-iott... But Never fear... Grandpa Troll is here... Laughing and rolliing on the floor like an idiot... I know... I know... Don't Cry... Dragon was the one who wrote-iot... Hey Dragon I was writting that... not you... Well yes... It WAS funnier that way... Well OK YOU WIN! Silly Dragon-iot... Think he'll get that one? Naw! LOL

Terry loves Cherry/ Where does she tarry?/ She cracks nuts/Ifs and buts/ Loves Tom Dick Harry ( may be Jack also)/ Lovely Lim Jack. Love and respect)))))rajat

Usually stick to narratives/quatrains... thought I'd give a limerick a shot! Great fun! Have a good one, my friend!
