Guilty (Limerick)




                           
How tragic the defense used delusion
Tried to sway the jury by illusion
Evident are the facts
Of these murderous acts
And now GUILTY, the only conclusion





Posted for Three Word Wednesday
Prompt : Evident, Illusiion, Tragic.

Access Denied

(Limerick)


A woman was fit to be tied
Could not lose the weight, though she tried
Then she said "Better buy it...
This new "Alarm" diet..."
A fridge that said "Access Denied!"

Elaine's Limerick

There once was a girl called Elaine
Who found work a laborious pain
So she quit her day job
To become a couch slob
And write limericks, that rhyme with her name

Going Green





Going Green


Now there once was a man from Nantucket
Who threw-up, but kept missing the bucket
But he had a wife who
Like to re-cycle too
So she gave him a straw and said "suck it"

Tongue Tied





Tongue Tied

A man who was rather a scold
Found his shouting was getting quite old
So his friends hatched a plot
Tied his tongue in a knot
Now he trips on his words, I've been told

Sticky Feet!






Now there once was a woman whose feet
Had a twitch when she ate something sweet
Glued her feet to the floor
She ate chocolate galore
But shes stuck on the edge of her seat!



Thanks to Lots of Laughter for the "Edge" prompt.

Lucky Break




Lucky Break


(a limerick)


Now there once was a boy while in traction
From his learning was missing-in-action
He remarked "Why it's cool
to skip two fifths of school,
'cause I'll miss the whole unit on fractions!"





(*For lovers of wordplay : boy breaks his leg, but he's not a bit broken up about it, since he gets a long break from school and studying broken numbers...fractions! So I guess you could say he had a"Lucky Break." He's an egg-head anyway!*)

(*also approximately one third of this limerick is in italics*)
