Limericks

There was a man who was very foolish

Everyone’s shoes he tried to polish

But one shoe he found too big

The one that belonged to a pig

So from that day, he’s using nail polish

There was an old lady who made horrible tea

So horrible that it paralysed me

The tea had old shoes and stinky socks

Keys and pencils and rusty locks

I wonder what else she puts in that tea

There was a guy who was a millionaire

His money with nobody did he share

But one day all his money flew out of the window

It was all eaten by a hungry dingo

He now hides his money in his hair

Nick was a stick who was not so quick

He danced and sang and did a trick

He threw himself at everyone

But he was a stick and not a bun

That is why they all hated Nick!

There was this purple dog who hit

My grey hair with a candle lit

My hair burst into flames

But there is no one who blames

That purple dog for his hit!

Not only is my classmate a nerd

But is also a clever cowherd

Who makes his cows learn math

Makes science for them a wrath

But they never find him absurd

Ricky thought he was Robin Hood

But God had made him for no good

In a river he lost the gold

And broke the king’s chef’s mould

I say, what a marvellous ‘Robin Hood’!

A fox and an alarm clock

Quietly went near the dock

Where there was a ship with the Jolly Roger flying high

And bombs blasting in the sky

Which chased away the fox and the alarm clock!
