Jewish Limerick

This man in Brooklyn named Isadore,
some big sandwiches he would adore.
Corned beef and pastrami,
and kosher salami.
He can’t fit in his clothes anymore.


Who says a limerick has to be Irish?

This even sounded jewish to me! Another good one, Robert. I recall someone around here did an Italian one. Probably that was yours too!!
