The Limerick Express! (Deborah Guzzi's Limerick Game)

I heard the train comin'
With warning bells strummin'
And had to leap oughta the way!
The Guzzi Express, with no time to rest,
Steamed Highlander's limerick to play!
With chimney a smoke
Right at this poor bloke,
C. Richards did save the day!
Said I to myself, go give it a try,
Then flutter to one we call Butterfly!
Until that time, the Engineer must fixit,
And blow the horn for Jared Pickett!
*Keep the wheels rollin' .....Poet Butterfly! your next!... C. E. McMullin!
**But first! the Engineer requests the 'Master Poet' Jared Pickett! Continue The Game!
