They all were-hmmm... what a shocker!


If soccer's not game of your choice

And you don't own a purple Rolls Royce,
Then you're more-or-less normal

But don't you use that tone of voice!

I came in last place in the luge

Just let your voice come out loud and rejoice!

When the choices for rhymes are not clear

Feet first, they're a drag
caused my butt to sag
I looked like a touqe-wearin' stooge.

my ski started turning to splinters
So I dug in my pole

So I dug in my pole
but I skewered a mole
and now I've got something for dinner.

Tez, this line doesn't fit in the limerick format.

Lines 3 and 4 are shorter and have a different rhyme or near-rhyme. For example:

While skiing downhill in the winter
my ski started turning to splinters
So I dug in my pole
but I skewered a mole
and now I've got something for dinner.


Have another go!

Romantic, I know.

Happy Valentine's Day to you all
Yes, even you there alone in the hall
Come on over tonight;
If your timing is right,
we'll explore your abdominal wall.

If the sharks keep on eating our tourists
