CCLX - Telling Tales

.

.Mad Kane has a regular limerick challenge.
She provides the first line, the rest is up to us.


A woman who was telling a tale
In breathless and intricate detail
Turned quite blue
Before it was through
As she completely forgot to exhale.

◊◊◊

A fellow who was telling a tale
Of his prowess as a virile young male
Found his nose growing longer
Than his pitiful donger:
A lesson to all who drink ale.

It could be closer, by a nose.
Are you asking which should be chose?
The one to choose
Unless you snooze,
will Will probably be one of Those.

That was hilarious. I'll get all the men I know to drink less ale.

Cosmo,
Both are sure winners. You are at your witty self all the time.

The nose's longer
The donger stays
That's what you get
for drinking ale?

What about Adam's Ale?
