Prunes and Other Things

There once was a man who ate nothing but prunes
He was broke and howled at the moon
He was desperate for work
And got some soon
Blowing up air ballons.


There was a man from pakistan
Who owned an old ice cream van
But the ice cream melted in the sun
Poor man
And now he sells burgers in a bun.


There was an elephant called peek a boo
Who escaped from a zoo
It didn't take long to trace him
Just am hour or two
They just followed a trail of giant poo.


There was a hedgehog who married a frog
They tried to mate but it hurt too much and fell of the log
So the hedgehog took off his pricly coat
And now they have seven little hedgefrogs
That live on a boat.

There was a bear who loved Fred Astaire
Who danced here and danced there
He stole clothes from a washing line
He looked a treat in ladies pink panties and tutu
Hey bear give them back there mine!.

Oh Peter, I had never seen these limericks of yours yet. Was thinking of you and feeling bad about having to withdraw myself from that writing group, and thought, gosh, when was the last time I paid peter a visit here at SOUP? Please come visit me here once in a while. Maybe you are just really busy at the other place. Anyway, I sure enjoyed these fun animal poems!
