There was an old lady from Mold
Who had the most terrible cold,
She went to the doctor
But he only mocked her
Saying, "It gets like that when you're old".
We used to have competitions in the car when going on holiday to see who could write the best limerick. Somewhere
I've got a whole notebook full of the ones we wrote.
The first two lines, and the last line should rhyme and the second and third lines should rhyme with each other.

I think that should be the third and fourth lines should rhyme with each other.

There was a young girl from devizes
Who had boobies of differing sizes
One was quite small
It was nothing at all
But the other was large and won prizes.

The version of that I know is about a young chap from Devises......
It's life Jim, but not as WE know it.
Live long and prosper.

I believe this well known (and I think anonymous) limerick sums up much of the difficulty implicit in the form:
The limerick packs laughs anatomical
Into space that is quite economical.
But the good ones I've seen
So seldom are clean
And the clean ones so seldom are comical.

Jill and her friend were to be wed,
"It won't work" everyone said.
She went to the Church,
But was left in the lurch,
'Cos the Groom took a bridesmaid to bed.
(Change the girl's name to suit)
It's life Jim, but not as WE know it.
Live long and prosper.

Hope you enjoyed that, it's new, composed just for you and has never appeared anywhere else.
It's life Jim, but not as WE know it.
Live long and prosper.

She wore something borrowed and blue,
her shoes were all shiny and new,
he said to her, cold:
"You forgot about 'old'"
She laughed and said: "Silly, that's you!

Janet and Jonny were wed
That night, as they lay in their bed
She said "in the church
my heart it did lurch....
should've married your brother instead"
