There once was an emu called Betty Lou
who covered a golf course with derring do;
the golfers complained;
the club pro was pained,
but the grass on the greens was like new.

Hi Ace,
I really like the limerick!!! Ha!!! Ha!!!
One nit: Did you mean to type Betty Lou? I believe the extra "d" is a typo, isn't it?
Peggy
Hi Ace
Good limerick Mate, but I fear you have one too many syllables in L1,L2 & L5 lines.
I tried to trim it but the lines changed all by themselves
There once /was an em/u called Lou
played golf/ as all Auss/ies must do.
When golf/ers complained;
their pro/ ascertained
that balls /were being kicked /black and blue.
(wasn't me)
this one uses 8 syllables but 9 can be used with the last syllable unstressed
as follows;
An em/u in North/-west Australia
played golf/ in his fin/est reggalia
OK, I'll stop, before the Aussies complain!
Damm, these things are fun!
Cheers
Wally
Peggy:
Thank you; I have done the appropriate edit...now if I could only learn to type. Glad it gave you a smile.
