Limerick, Poetic Form Exercise Options

[JustDaniel]

If your bon-bons are smelly, choc-lit
isn't what they're made of, sure as spit,
so just leave them alone
'cause geese on the throne
grind an' splat all the stuff that they's et.

[Larry]

When geese splat all the stuff that they eat
on your grass all the worms have a treat
which will aerate the soil
so when spring comes your toil
will be less and your lawns are replete.

[JustDaniel]

If you're pleating your lawn to impress
all your neighbors, I think your excess
goes so far o'er the pail
that you need to inhale
and enjoy the lawn's greening success.

[Larry]

A green lawn’s a success to enjoy
if the fertilizer you employ
has been treated and dried
before it is applied
or the smell of your grass will annoy.

[JustDaniel]

If the smells of the asses annoy
tell the donkeys that you don't enjoy
the aromas that they
fill the air with; don't say
that each morning their backs you employ.

[Larry]

If employees are mourning their back
and they can’t take a break for a snack
then you’re a sorry boss
whom they all want to toss
in the shed by the dynamite shack.

[JustDaniel]

Since the dynamite shack is a shed
when it rains, you can go there for bed;
but I hope you don't smoke
'cause you surely would croak
when it scatters your body and head.

[Larry]

If you shatter your body and head
you are probably better off dead
for wheelchairs or a crutch
will not help you too much
with your savings and you in the red.

[JustDaniel]

If your savings account's in the red
you have taken a loan out instead
of the goals that you set;
you had better not bet
any more on the black, as I've said.

[Larry]

You have said, “Do not bet on the black!”
even if you’ve amassed a big stack
of nice multi-hued chips;
Lady Luck often slips
and the bouncers will throw you out back.

[JustDaniel]

If you're bouncing, you'll throw up out back;
do you want trampoline heart attack?
As we mellow in age
we should try to be sage...
even parsley with thyme for the rack.

[Larry]

You have parcels of time in the rack
to alleviate pain in your back
from a spine which was bent
past its greatest extent
and your chiropractor was a hack.

[JustDaniel]

If your doctor is having a hack
he should tell you that you can come back
when his cough's in control
and he can console
you for teeth that are covered with plaque.

[Larry]

If your teeth are all covered with plaque,
rot and pyorrhea will attack
until teeth have to be
saved by good dentistry
or you’ll get a new set that will stack.

[JustDaniel]

If your books are all piled as a set
you will not have been reading, I'd bet
'cause the ones underneath
can't be reached, and your teeth
stacked beside them is poor etiquette.

[Larry]

Stacking teeth beside books is alright
and Mrs. Manners can sleep well at night
for she knows her cute smile
had set there for a while
until dental experts fixed her plight.

[JustDaniel]

If your plight has been fixed by a driller
you have likely then heard from the biller
to send him some bucks
'cause his work was deluxe
and Collector is known as a killer!

[Larry]

A collector who kills all his prey
to prepare them for show or display;
pins and decapitates
species in dire straits
causing many extinctions each day.

[JustDaniel]

If you want to extinguish each day
birthday candles that your cakes display
give an optional fan
that your technical man
will turn on so the child won't dismay.

[Larry]

If your child’s in dismay will you turn
on the lights in the hall? Let them burn
all the fears of the night
when their comforting light
scares the monsters which cause his concern.
