Premium MemberLeprechaun

An imp plied Guinness to a Banshee trick
The wraith in anger gave him chase right quick,
After her gold he did dig
The Leprechaun danced a jig
But lost her rich hoard in a Limerick.


Premium MemberThe Spinning Leprechaud

 

Once there was an short leprechaun called Fin,
he was slime green and had a big wide grin;
      left Ireland and lost his gold,
      had a sly plan to unfold . . .  
Leaping to pick a pocket with a  S P I N  !
fun

Premium MemberEscape of the Leprechaun

When a leprechaun tightly I caught,
I was hoping for gold in a pot.
But that trickster escaped.
At my hands I just gaped.
His wee britches were all that I got.

Premium MemberLimerick for a Leprechaun

Leprechaun, you have it wrong
You need to sing the barmaid’s song
Bawdy and fun
Raunchy on the run
Words just shy of a dirty bong

Leprechaun, come sit with me
Right here, on my broken knee
I will give you a pinch
Feeling each little inch
You will like it, you will see.

Premium MemberMcDougal's Irish Accent

McDugal, the Leprechaun is a gent
Mick's wife always says he was Heaven sent
He shows respect to women
In their praises he's swimmin'
They love hearin' his Irish brogue accent

Premium MemberLeprechaun Fine Print

A leprechaun, to me, proposed, 
at my service, to be disposed.  
He'd one more thing to say
as he jetted away.
I must catch him first, he disclosed.

Premium MemberLeprechaun

Harsh time flew and I've gotten so old,
suffering from treacheries untold, 
but when I get my hands on
that mischievous leprechaun, 
at long last, I'll have my pot of gold.

A Saint Patrick’s Limerick

A leprechaun who was afraid
To take part in today’s big parade
Found a good place to hide
But once he was inside
Quickly saw the mistake he had made.

For instead of a pub to appease,
With some corned beef and Guinness to please,
It became very plain
He’d be eating lo mein 
Since the place he was in was Chinese.

Still, the waiters went out of their way
To make sure that this unplanned delay 
Was as good as could be
So, along with his tea
Was a cookie to brighten his day.

When he opened the fortune, he read,
“Though you’re Irish, we’re glad you were led 
To try out our cuisine;
Now it’s back to the green
For great riches for you lie ahead!”

Irish tales of what a leprechaun gives away
If you don’t wear green on St Paddy’s Day 
a painful pinch
Like Suisse’s Grinch,
a green tie or  vest so invisible you’ll stay
                                               by I Am Anaya

On St. Paddy's day I grabbed a lassie fair
kissed her lips and pinched her derriere
I so love this tradition
I'm a gent on a mission
Shall I go on I asked, she screamed don't you dare!
                                               by Robert O'Gorelick

My lil green party dress for Paddy’s day is too tight
and I don’t want to get pinched by elves tonight
I let out the seams
And removed all that blings
Clear of Leprechaun’s with a big whiskey appetite
                                                by I Am Anaya

Out on the razzle for Saint Patrick’s night  
All dressed up in green, one has to look right  
I’ll do my high kicks  
As I can’t resist 
Being a dare devil, and giving fright 
                                                by Beryl Edmunds

LEPRECHAUN I

This leprechaun Fastly appeared
And said, will you be mine, my dear
He showed me his gold
That little man was bold
So, I snatched it up and disappeared

Two Limericks For Saint Patrick's Day

I.

I strolled through a field of clovers 
Looking each one of them over 
When I found that fourth leaf 
All my joy turned to grief 
When my prize was snatched by a gopher.


II.
 
Last night as I left the bar 
A leprechaun stood by my car 
He offered to drive 
So I’d get home alive 
And now I don’t know where we are.

Premium MemberA Jolly Old Leprechaun

Eighty-eight years old and still going strong
Have a positive approach so what could go wrong
It's done me well
I've answered the bell
Each morning like a jolly old leprechaun
joy

Premium MemberSlightly Sprightly

The wee people, clever and sprightly,
play tricks on the mortal folk, nightly.
As there's mischief in me,
could it possibly be
I've got leprechaun charm in me, slightly?

Leprechaun's Run

A leprechaun ran away fast
When some teens were chasing his ass
They wanted his gold
Those guys were so bold
They tried tracking him through a podcast

Leprechaun's Charm

A leprechaun lost his charm
Which set off a big alarm
So, he tried to fix
His shillelagh stick
And hopes it brings him no harm
