Limerick, Poetic Form Exercise Options

[Merlin]

We drank from many a bottle
and pleasured in many a mottel.
The best was champagne
when my lady-friend, Jane,
would skillfully work the hand throttle.

[JustDaniel]

If you throttle your bottle by hand
it could break in your palm; then the sand
could be red with your blood,
and that cannot be good...
or'd you bottle it as a new brand?

[Alan]

To now be bottled as a new brand
you would need something quite out of hand
none of your "focus" crap
so they can take the rap
thus far - for that remains where I stand

Alan

[JustDaniel]

If you like, just remain where you stand,
but your meaning I don't understand!
Need I focus some more?
Will you rap on my door
to explain... or leave my brain unmanned?

[Merlin]

To explain to an unmanned bird brain
will result in a flush down the drain.
Keep a scooper at hand
and then dip on demand
all wisdom from Nome to Arcane!

[Larry]

Arcane wisdom from Nome Eskimos
deals with food; how it is to be froze
and then thawed out to eat.
Blubber turns into meat
that they eat without holding their nose.

[JustDaniel]

If you eat while you're holding your nose
just be sure it's attached! I suppose
that a cannibal can
eat the thing, but, oh, man...
not your own or the one that he blows!!!

[Merlin]

If ya blows with a hurricane force
the throne may get shattered, of course!
A wind from the east
is most likely greased
and a squeaker is not from a hoarse.

[JustDaniel]

When a squeaker comes out who is hoarse,
his poor speaking attempts come with force,
so the tired mouse expired...
but his wife now has hired
a hit-man her lawyer's endorsed.

[Alan]

If you do something a lawyer'd endorse
expect in your bed, the head of a horse
for of honour there is none
you are now a "loved one"
and events will now take their due course

Alan

[JustDaniel]

When the dew makes events on the course
to be postponed, that action will force
some golfers to drop
their balls when they stop
for breakfast -- in clubhouse; what's worse?

[Merlin]

What’s worse than a clubhouse for breakfast?
Not fruit, it’s on top of the good list.
An omelet’s okay –
Cholesterol, oh veh!
But beer gives that morning a real twist!

[JustDaniel]

If you're twisted, start each day with beer;
but be careful, you could find a bier
for a permanent bed
and a gravestone instead
of a back porch from which you could leer.

[Alan]

Now, a front porch from which you can peer
at jammed traffic, about which you can sneer
now that you're retired
to laugh at those mired
best of all, you could raise a bronx cheer

Alan

[JustDaniel]

Two Types of Bronx Cheer

If you cheer in the Bronx, you're a fan
of the Yankees, though it's true you can,
with your hands on your hips
and your tongue through your lips
razz the visiting team and their clan.

[Merlin]

A clan went to visit the Burdocks
who live in the hills near Lake Errocks.
That’s not near the Bronx;
it’s where Honky Tonk tonks
with that music on loud, and does she rocks!

[JustDaniel]

With the music on loud, she just rocks
on her chair with ol' Merlin in socks
back and forth all day long
like it's where they belong
'cause their car's sittin' out front on blocks.

[Merlin]

My truck was on blocks in the gay-rage
with its tranny kaput like a montage.
Need I say it’s a Ford?
Not again, mark my word…
two trannies but I got the massage!


[Ford Ranger - blew the 1st tranny pulling a camper trailer, all my doing. 2nd tranny went coming up my very long hill, some 3000 ft altitude shift, loaded with 2x4s and stuff. If a 1/2 T truck can't even pull itself up a hill, something wrong with the picture, right? No more Fords for me! I've traded it for a very nice fishing boat that hopefully will give me pleasure soon.]

[Maureen]

two trannies at the gay Mardi Gras
wore sequins and feathers - no tar
was in view of their sight
the Navy sailed last night
so they're both flying solo - so far

[JustDaniel]

Batman, with his solo chauffeur,
messaged Robin as though to confer,
but he cut off his call,
which would certainly gall
him; the driver is young Rob's masseur.
