TURK TATIL MIZAH
FOREST GUMP Did you hear about old Forest Gump Went up to do a parachute jump Gave the rip cord a jerk Found out it didn't work Hit the ground with one hell of a thump... JED In the care home was an old boy called Jed Always given some blue pills with his med And every night He didn't excite But it stopped him from falling out of bed... THE BAKER There was a baker from Hemel Hempstead His loaves were the best you've ever tasted But what people didn't know LSD was in the dough After eating his bread they'd be wasted... PETE A meat factory owner called Pete Won gold awards for his sausage meat But his meat supply And this is no lie Was of meat from stray dogs off the street... SANTA ( NOT FOR KIDS ) Santa Claus was out preparing his sled Whilst all children were tucked up in bed Put some presents at the back Had a fatal heart attack The elves rushed out but poor Santa was dead ... THE SWIMMER A young man went for a swim in the sea Smelt a bad smell wondered what can it be A woman shouted swim back The sewer pipe has a crack He then realised he was swimming in pee... JOHN John was heading off to hot sunny Spain When he landed saw snow falling and rain Went through immigration Hit with realisation At the airport he'd boarded the wrong plane... SUZE She was born in the city of Syracuse Was a stripper with the stage name of Suze Was ginormous on top That made all men's jaws drop For private shows she's the one men would choose... FRED Fred went out for a curry vindaloo All okay till he bent down to his shoe A sharp pain then some gas He was sure it would pass Too late, he never made it to the loo... Written on 24th September 2019.

All of your limericks are really great fun Tom - You really are excellent at writing this form of poetry - in fact I name you King of Limericks! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Wow, these are all great, Tom! My heart goes out to poor Fred and I would not want to be swimming in contaminated water. Got the biggest laughs with Jed and the baker. Keep them coming... Hugs, Carolyn

I needed something to smile at after today's hectic schedule and so I decided to read some poetry here. I looked if I could find any new limericks of yours. I found and you never disappoint me Tom. Thanks for spreading smiles. :)
