Limericks Written In A Country Churchyard
There once was a sensitive vicar, who said, "I'm not one to bicker, but the peal of that bell, makes me feel quite unwell, and plays merry hell with my ticker." An incensed old soul by the spire, preaching incense-igniting to the choir, exclaimed, "There is but one catch, when striking a match, don't set your surplice on fire." A parson spoke from the nave, "Spend...

Tech Tantrums and Timely Limericks
Moneypenny, with tech at her hand, Said, "Bond's gadgets, I barely withstand!" With a sigh and a roll, She'd try to take control, "He's destroying my workplace, I've planned!" ©bfa032125 (Moneypenny in Die Another Day)...

The furthest I ever got with Anne was a bit past the church of St. Stan. And there, she bolted from my car, yelling, "This time you've gone way too far! See if you drive me to church again, Dan! I asked her if she wanted to go. She said, "To where?" I said, “I don't know.” She said, “Wow, that’s really...

Premium Member Let There Be Limericks: Perplexing Plurals
A papoose with a twin is papooses, Double goose and get geese, but not gooses. Pluralizing perplexes me, Aggravates me, and vexes me, And I suspect that it checks my creative juices. ...

Festive Limericks
For the sleigh team there applied ten: Nine deer and a man born of men; Though trembling with fear, Santa’s choice was clear: Rudolf instead of Dolf Lundgren. Ol' Frosty was struggling to count- He couldn’t get his numbers to mount. He dropped his mid-weight To look like an eight And so now can give good account. Santa stipulated stocked shelves And so...

A young bass was said to record a version of Thus Saith the Lord. Though the work was demanding, he was simply outstanding. Even Handel would have been floored! For a successful run of Messiah a...

Poor Mrs.Lotty became so confused, But because of her age she's excused. She adores decorating. But what she is creating, Has the neighborhood somewhat amused. On Halloween she put up her trèe. There were ghosts in the nativity! Santa wore a pilgrim hat, The tree topper was a bat! None could fault her creativity. The wreath made of fall leaves on the door, Was decked out...
