Caribou Hill and Others

An old man from Caribou Hill
Fancied a bit of a thrill
His care worker, Sandy
Was willing and randy
And slipped him a little blue pill.

            ***

If only the coach would have told him
If only he’d bothered to scold him
My footballer son
Just might have won
And maybe I wouldn’t have sold him

            ***

Adam was not taking bets
When Eve turned up wearing fish nets
He told her stand back
I’m feeling less slack
And I don’t know how big this thing gets.

            ***

A dog lover called Timmy Tupp
Was laying a lawn for his pup
The sods were high piled 
His neighbours all smiled
And one of them yelled ‘green side up’

            ***

A randy lass from Billericky
Left Sherry, mince pies and a biccie
Don’t be too dismayed
Christmas is delayed
For tonight Santa fancied a quickie

            ***

Tarzan tried hard not to cough
But his loins were in need of a cloth
Jane said at a pinch
You’re nearly an inch
And Tarzan was really hacked off

Thanks, Tom. I know you like a limerick. Do you find they’re like buses... they all come at once? ALL COME AT ONCE???... I feel Limerick coming on...

Thank you, Caren. Funny that limericks seem to be a state of mind. Write one and four or five follow it.
