Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

Two Half-Limericks Don't Necessarily Make One Hole

                ~ She Reached Down My Pants ~

                Went to the recent school dance
                Was grabbed by a big, fat chance
                Who reached down my pants

                   But what she wanted was missing 
                   She settled for an hour of French kissing



                    ~ She Was Homely, I Wanted Comely ~

                 My first date was, to put it mildly, slightly homely
                 I told her honestly I was seeking someone more comely

                     What’d she do? She spat in my eye
                     Told me I was a typical dull guy

                 'Cos if I wanted the latest gossip ~ with her I’d never be lonely

CayCay Godwin August 21, 2026 at 5:00 PM I struggle with limericks, don't have the 'rules' memorized so I'm not the best at critique from that perspective. From laughter's point of view, I am a seeker and pro who well knows both these limericks are laughter inducers, giggle crafters, and tom foolery coolery. I want to push the Homely/Comely line up closer to the French Kissing, so everyone gets where it's coming from and going. ENJOYED Gershon Wolf August 22, 2026 at 8:35 PM CayCay, here's a little tip: You can write a limerick without memorizing the rules. For that bit of wisdom, I'll take 10% of your royalties from your first limericks best-seller. Deal?!

Yann Rolland August 21, 2026 at 3:49 PM great experience, i am a great looser too while seeking love, marvelous tribute with smiles bon dimanche Gershon Wolf August 22, 2026 at 8:41 PM Yann, I think we all lose many times in the adventure that is love. But just one victory changes the whole equation. ~ gw

Alison A Smith August 21, 2026 at 5:51 AM Two half-limericks, boldly sprung— With more cheek than a school bell rung. The rhyme may roam, But it lands at home: A mischievous laugh, neatly flung.😂

Sotto Poet August 21, 2026 at 5:34 AM Gershon, your zeitgeisty poem shows great creativity with a playful twist on the limerick form, mixing humor and storytelling in a light-hearted way. Great Job
