Mad Kane has a regular limerick challenge.
She provides the first line, the rest is up to us.
I had two slants on it:
.
A man was recounting his woes,
About how he’d lost sight of his toes,
His mouth, he’d admit,
Was a bottomless pit:
It was a case of anything goes.

A girl was recounting her woes
In finding some half decent clothes.
When her partner confessed
He preferred her undressed,
He’s now buried, under a rose.

Not happy with the last line of the 2nd one.
ReplyDeleteIt was "She then had a body to dispose."
ReplyDeleteThat's a very severe punishment for a passing comment! xx
ReplyDeleteNo room for sentimentality in a Limerick!
ReplyDeleteI like them both. The line you have in the second one (I assume it is after the change) works well! Poor fellow.
ReplyDeleteA glutton and murderess.
ReplyDeleteNice going, Cosmo.
The fact that she buried him under a rose cracks me up..
Snickering here. Which is a nice start to my day. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Fun limericks. Thanks as always for participating in my Limerick-Offs!
ReplyDeleteLOL. I like them both.
ReplyDeleteI personally prefer to remain undressed ....! Poor guy.
ReplyDeleteDelightful as ever, Cosmo.

RDG: What a coincidence! That's how I imagine you too!
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly the situation in our home, except my husband is still very much alive, LOL!
ReplyDeleteBoth limericks make me smile :-)
Hee Hee!
ReplyDeleteI liked the one you posted on Mad Kane about the guy's opening line.
U so FUNNY!
