I wrote these today. I’m not one to write limericks. I’m not real comfortable with the form. The last one is for a special friend of mine.
Here goes nothing!
Presenting Really Bad Limericks:
Savannah
There was a girl from Savannah
Who had the most terrible manners
She never said please
And often would tease
Even those who tripped on peeled bananas.
Seattle
There was a man from Seattle
Who got in the rottenest battles
If he sat next to you at a bar
Best to take yourself very far
From his brass knuckles, used often on cattle.
Ocean Shores
There was a woman from Ocean Shores
Who only saw open doors
She was so positive
That God was the causative
With only good things in store.
Orlando
There was a lady from Orlando
Who was all about the Can-Do
Collages, poems and short stories
Productive, even with her health worries
Wish I had her ducks in a row.

I don’t think your poems were bad, quite the difference. Love how you worked in our cities.
Thanks, Lin. I had a fun time doing these!
There was a young lass from Manhattan
who tried very hard not to fatten
It was thus quite a treat
to have something to eat
so she ate it in silence, not chattin’.
