Winters End Humour

JED. Jed the horse thief was a bit of a dope Stole a pretty horse and tried to elope Folk declared him a horse thief And for giving them much grief They dangled him at the end of a rope... PADDY O'HARE. A deep sea diver called Paddy O'Hare Was on the sea bed without any care His watch he forgot to check Coughed and said" oh flippin heck" Never surfaced cos he ran out of air... BARTHOLOMEW LOTT. The great explorer Bartholomew Lott Was in the jungle with Jimmy the Scot Cannibal's came in the night They both put up a great fight But were outnumbered and put in a pot... FRED. Fred tried to run away with his lover Was caught in the act by his dear mother She said this cannot be T'will end in tragedy His lover was the wife of his brother... JIHADI (WON'T BE MISSED). Bin Sayed said everything will be fine Told a Jihadi bomber to cross the line But Jihadi didn't know Something was about to blow A loud kaboom when he stepped on a mine... LOUISE. An old woman by the name of Louise Had a fur coat that made everyone sneeze Also they'd start to twitch And scratch raw from the itch She found out it was infested with fleas... KEITH THE TROLL There was a vile and nasty troll called Keith Bullied the weak and shy into defeat He lived in a small town A victim tracked him down Now he's seen walking around with no teeth... Written 26th February 2020.

Hello Tom, thank you for the winters end humor. For 5 days it has snowed off and on and i shovled the deck 5 times. My piles look like little mountains. Have a nice evening my friend.

Thank you Darlene, sounds like your winter not yet over. Here in the UK we have a spring feel in the air, we haven't had any snow and only a few frosts. Hang in there spring is coming. Enjoy your weekend. Tom

WoW! Tom, So glad I found your string of limericks. The last one was good to end these well written limericks with. I laughed out loud because I could picture the bully walking around with missing teeth! I’m still waiting on your book. Have a good day and weekend:-) Alexis
