Aliens

The alien saucer fell hard.
It landed right there in my yard.
    I'd give them jobs mowing
    or cooking and sewing
but none of them has a Green Card.

I loved this because it was funny and silly. Exactly what a limerick should be!

(Oh, hello there :) almost skipped over your page without checking.) Since the aliens cannot be shipped back to their respective homelands, I'd make them illegal aliens. 8-8-6-6-8. Great Limerick. Jan below (PS queen of limericks) agrees, I see :)

There is a game on A Nother Forum to write a limerick about the suggested topic, then suggest the next topic. That was my alien limerick. It was inspired by a song written (probably) by Mitch Lawyer called "The Wharton UFO" performed by the Flying Fish Sailors (may be on YouTube).
