Spring Limerick Time


The Roses are Red
The Violets are Blue
The sunshine has got in me
And the Devil has, too.

The Sunshine’s hit Dragon
Oh what will we do?
He poo’d on my Roses
Oh I know what I’ll Do!
So I Gave him a bath
Most wonderous thing!
He’ll be stuck in the tub…
Come Hell or next Spring!

I know, I know
But The Devil won’t let go!
So I’ll Run to McDonald’s
For them lucky guys 
These to bestow!

There once was a guy named Elliot
Who’s funny bone hasn’t broken yet-iot
But never fear… Grandpa Troll is here
Laughing and rolling on the floor like an id-iot

I know… I know… Don’t cry… at it!
Dragon’s the one who wrote-iot
Hey Dragon… I was THE ONE who started writing it… I say!
Well Yes… it WAS funnier that way
Well, OK! YOU WIN… I said with a grin… 
Your such a silly Dragon-iot… I said with shagrin
Think he’ll get that one… in the end?
Well, Maybe just incase, I’d better start running… I say 
My friends… won’t tell Dragon so it’ll be OK
Well…Maybe?… Naw… No Way!

And No…Dragon!  I Did NOT get Carried AWAY!
Naw… No Way!
