Would You Like An Artichoke

There was once a real funny bloke
        That could tell a silly joke
                One day rumbled 
               Then he stumbled 
 Because of a large green artichoke

I was wondering if it were for the blue cheese contest when I saw the title. I do not think that veggie tastes too great.

Here I am, my baby - and I am impressed that you wrote a 'just because' limerick! Limericks are not my friends, my brain just isn't wired to inspire them. This is delightful, as are you and your presence. Hugs ... CayCay

Good Morning Alexis, :) I was happy to see you welcome me back a few days ago. So sad for him, I hope he was shocked at how large the artichoke was, instead of choking on one... A great limerick... Always A pleasure to read. LINDA
