Limericks

There once was a guy named Matt
Who had a very large cat
When it chased a mouse
It shook the whole house
So Matt got rid of the cat.

***

There once was a lady named Lynn
Who was so uncommonly thin,
that when she assayed
to drink lemonade,
she slipped through the straw and fell in!

***

There once was an old man of Esser,
Whose knowledge grew lesser and lesser,
It at last grew so small
He knew nothing at all,
And now he's a college professor.

***

An epicure dining at Crewe
Found a very large bug in his stew.
Said the waiter, "Don't shout
And wave it about,
Or the rest will be wanting one too."

***

There was an Old Man of Moldavia,
Who had the most curious behaviour;
For while he was able,
He slept on a table.
That funny Old Man of Moldavia.
(Edward Lear)

***

There was an Old Man of Quebec,
A beetle ran over his neck;
But he cried, 'With a needle,
I'll slay you, O beadle!'
That angry Old Man of Quebec.
(Edward Lear)

***

A robin my cat once befriended
Till one day the relationship ended
I came home to find
My cat changed her mind
For from her mouth a feather extended
(by Kathy Littrell)
