RE: NEW CONTEST: WRITE A LIMERICK. 20 STEEM AND 700 TRAIL TO BE WON EVERY WEEK
Oh good! I do too - as long as they are funny. Edward Lear, one of the great writers of limericks made them funny ... until the last line. Ronnie Barker, the British comedian used to re-write them and make them very funny! Thank you again for your support. I think I had better take you under my wing as my cheerleader!
lolz. and on that note...here's a limerick my dad taught me when I was just 10...
There once was a man from Boston
Who had a little Austin
there was room for his ass
and a gallon of gas
But his b*lls fell out and he lost 'em!
That is just wonderful!
Well, you censored yours whereas my man from Madras I am afraid had no such scrutiny. Limericks are naughty by nature. There is no getting away from it.
By the way, my first car was an Austin but I am from Hampshire, England. Otherwise, the similarities are very funny. Bits used to drop off and it seemed unaffected! Eventually it was sold and converted into a go-kart. All you ned to know, methinks.
You are now behoven to write a limerick - may I give you the honour of selecting the first word? Everyone has to use it as the last word in the first line. How does that sound?
So much pressure!
You've probably already thought of a word/name/place, but if not, how about
Ned? or New York? or something garden-y like flower or daisy?
I can't decide!!! but it's gotta have a lot of rhyming options!
I think you nailed it with Ned!
To be quite honest, I had not got to the point of selecting a word. So, if you are happy, you have selected the word for Week One!
Ned is out there! The Limericks have started to flow in! Thank you.
it's a plan!
