Dad Limericks

Dad went to work on an egg each day 
Til one day the egg cracked on the way
Pants covered in yolk
It was not a joke
That his colleagues egged him on, all day.

Dad had an egg every single day
He wouldn't have it any other way
Til he got egg bound
And suddenly found
That he was clucking the day away.

Daddy was fond of his eggy bready
Every morning mommy got it ready
One day she was late
Much to her distaste 
He ran off with merry leggy Peggy.

Daddy asked a barmaid for an eggnog
She thought that he was asking for a snog
She took him outside
And to her surprise
He said I was asking where was the bog.

Dear Beryl, Your Dad Limericks are an absolute delight! Each stanza creates a picture of your dad’s quirky love affair with eggs, from the morning routine to unexpected escapades. I love your humor woven into each line brought a smile to my face, especially the unexpected twist in the last one. Your playful use of language and clever rhymes make for an enjoyable read. I love how these charming verses glimpses into your dad’s egg-centric world. - Blessings, Daniel

Thank you so much Daniel, these dad Lims were fun to write, inspired by Linda Alice Fowler’ blog Dad Egg Jokes. I’m pleased these Lims brought a smile to your face, who could ask for anything more. Bless you, Beryl
