Today is National Limerick Day. This is the day we celebrates the birthday of Writer Edward Lear (1812-1888), and of course Limerick poems. Limericks were popularized by Lear in 1846 in his Book of Nonsense.
So I thought I would bring you a few modern day Limericks. Feel free to contribute your own, but please NO “There was a man from Nantucket.”
He thinks school children should be able to carry,
Not just books, but guns and ammo,
So they can walk around acting like Rambo.
Personally I think this is really scary.
Got a message from President Obama.
It was two bullets to the head
From Navy Seals who also said,
“By the way, screw your mama.”
Whose wife number three is really cute.
He says he discovered Jesus and is born again,
And has been forgiven of his many sins.
Even for a politician, that is a real beaut.
She was Champaign, but he was beers.
She smiled and said, “Hit the road, Jack,”
While he mumbled, “I’ll be back.”
It was all low key, practically no tears.
She constantly screws up facts and then some.
Mostly she gives history a re-mix.
Thinks the Civil War was fought in 1776.
The fact is, she’s just plain dumb.
About the looming National debt.
They watched Bush spend year after year,
Not saying a word or shedding a tear.
They may be the biggest hypocrites yet.
Stay tuned for future adventures
