A Bit of Humour For the Weekend

STACE A girl runner by the name of Stace Ran the annual marathon race near the end of the run Both laces come undone She stumbled and fell flat on her face. OLD SAILOR An old sailor was out on the ocean It was choppy and he felt a motion Had some curry last night But the taste wasn't right Down below felt a muffled explosion. SUE ROSE A young lady by the name of Sue Rose Hoped that a man to her would propose Couldn't understand why All the men were so shy Then in the mirror saw hairs in her nose. ABDUL Bush safari went Abdul with eight wives Parked on a hillside for lunch to eat chives Then to their dismay Their jeep rolled away Heard lions roaring and ran for their lives. BLACK BILL An undertaker in Dodge called Black Bill To boost his business people he would kill But one man wasn't dead Shot Black Bill in the head Now in a grave he lies up at Boot Hill. FREDERICK STARK A skinny dipper called Frederick Stark Went for a swim in the sea, it was dark Da Dum he could hear It filled him with fear Then in moonlight saw the fin of a shark. JOCK A Scotchman who was known as Big Jock Went out walking one day by the Loch A gust of wind blew And up his kilt flew Some passing girls were left in deep shock. Written 2nd August 2019.

These are all quite good, my friend. But I think that 'Old Sailor' tops them all, a masterpiece! That muffled explosion has me exploding. ~ gw

Tom, you must have a book published with all your limericks - you really have great talent for this and not only are they humorous for the weekend but for the week to come - well penned my friend. Blessings, Jennifer.

My good friend, Tom, that much humour is too much just for the weekend. I need at least a week to enjoy it in small doses. Hahaha. Superb Limericks . I am charged with humour and the smile on my face would last till next Sunday. Thank you!
