A great limerick (I love them), very funny and just the correct rhythm, more, more!

Thanks Terry, this one was "poor" at best. Hopefully my attempts at Limericks will get better.

A sad first attempt at writing a Limerick, Linda. LOL It could only get better !! Reading all those wonderful ones Rico writes didn't seem to teach me anything !!!

Did you intentionally choose "Jeff"?

No it just popped into my head, but Paul Callus suggested he be named Jonah, and I wish I had thought of that ! It is so much better.

This is witty, cute and with a very suitable title, Wendy. Good thing the dentist was not named Jonah.... Regards // paul

See Paul, I need a mentor, I should have thought of calling him Jonah ! I thought it was time I tried my hand at a variety of different styles of poetry. A long way of mastering it, but its fun. I use the competitions to give me ideas. Thank you for your comments.

A bit of silliness but they say variety is the spice of life, so I thought I would try my hand at something different. Thanks for your comment Victor.
