Terry Flood Poet Limerick

Dot To Dot

While gazing at the stars my girlfriend said, “I love you, Billy,
The heavens are ablaze for us, does that sound kinda silly?”
I smiled and said, “No it does not,
It’s like a stellar dot-to-dot,
And don’t you think that constellation looks quite like a willy?”

*

Was in the tattoo parlour, there were samples up on easels
I love my furry critters so my tattoo will be weasels
An appointment they had not
So I did a dot-to-dot
Upon the owners son who had a nasty case of measels

*

My girlfriend is so gorgeous that she has me tied in knots
Last night I did some dot-to-dots but then she got the hots
My steamy topless Miss
Said, “Hey boy, puzzle this.”
I said, “That won’t take very long as there are just two dots.”

*

This cryptic dot-to-dot is such a masterful creation
The latest puzzle trending in this puzzle-crazy nation
With no number by each dot
Had to guess the path to plot
Until an angry man said, “Oy, don’t draw on my dalmation!”

Jeff Kyser December 22, 2022 at 4:05 PM I like the idea of different takes on a theme - very clever. Terry Flood December 22, 2022 at 5:07 PM Thanks, Jeff. This win took me by some surprise. Of course, I am well chuffed. Cheers. Terry

Kim Rodrigues December 22, 2022 at 2:46 PM Those dot to dots take you to silly places with your limericks…lol. Congratulations on 1st place in my contest, Terry! Terry Flood December 22, 2022 at 5:05 PM I’m astounded, Kim. I wasn’t convinced about this entry and only left it in for want of something else. So I’m well chuffed with a first. Thanks, Kim

Terry Miller November 28, 2022 at 1:38 AM Love them all! Leave them as is should be a winner! Terry Flood November 28, 2022 at 2:03 AM Thanks, Terry. I’m not sure what it is about these, but I just feel i could do better. Alas the dark void in my head is providing no assistance. But I’m glad you enjoyed, maybe I’m too harsh a judge :-)
