To old World of Warcraft I fly-
My character, the paladin guy
I light things on fire
head to the Dawnspire
And hope that my pally won't die

There once was a dragon called Smaug,
Whose burning breath lit every log
His magnificent golden scale
From his head to his tail
Made him shimmer through smoke and fog

The sun would not stop beaming down
And everyone sweat from their toes to their crown
Because of the heat
That could not be beat
Their sweat made them saltwater gowns

There once was a drummer of legend
Whose lightning bass kicks were from heaven
And all his band mates
Had all of their crates
Cranked ALL the way up - to eleven!!!

There once was a woman in fetters
Who thought perhaps life could be better
She tried to break free
The guard heard her plea
But said to his mate, "Never met her!"

I think Limericks are the better of two
Takes more thought and wit than a Haiku
I only posted in there
For easy points, to be fair
For both allow me to burst forth in great foo.

There once was a hobbit named Bilbo
Who could not a magic ring forego
It wasn't a lark
On knees, in the dark
At least with the ring he could tiptoe!

When Bilbo went poof
Frodo played all aloof
But really he wasn't a dodo.

There once was a hobbit named Bilbo
Who, when persuaded, on adventures will go,
He was branded a thief,
Faced the last dragon chief,
He was a small but indelible foe
Also I had never come across an interrobang before, but that is excellent piece of punctuation which I will adopt forthwith (see above).
@Nia why, yes!
There once was a hobbit named Bilbo
Who a-travellin' often would still go
Short journeys, of course
And never by horse
For he'd fall, hurting hip, knee and elbow

There once was a site called the plaza
It added to life such a salsa
When the plaza came back
The posts started to stack
And post 20k caused such great drama.

@Lirimaer excellent, not just me then
When plaza posts reached 20k
The internet started to say
Oh what a great site
The membership - a delight
You must top Google without delay

My dog has become very hairy
Since going places became scary
The groomers shut down
Throughout this big town
So we hope for a dog-haircut fairy

O.M.G. That Bilbo rhyme....
There once was a hobbit named Bilbo
Dubbed a Burglar, but didn'tya know
He gamed with a rhyme
Til he ran out of time
And won with the prize of a ring, though.

@Tarawen, you must be that good fairy
For your dog who is ever-so-hairy
Just get some clippers -
Or scissors, or snippers
And soon he'll be less (or more) scary!

My dog's started scooting his butt
And all veterinarians are shut
Oh, what a to-do,
When he has to p**

I could not understand why a haiku,
Was no longer worthy of points too,
But then I calmed down
And thought with a frown,
A Limerick, I probably could do.

When planning to take a vacation
There's surely some good preparation
Pack up all your clothes
Order tickets for shows
So that you can go sans consternation.

No more on adventures he will go,
Though memories cherished
Relieved he’d not perished,
He secretly misses the thrill though

There are some really good LotR limericks in here now, let me add one that's not so good.
There once was an Ent, name of Fangorn
Who wished for his wife, he was forlorn
She gone far away
From where he would stay
And 'twixt heart and love he was full torn.

As a biscuit when it's dunked in tea
But of all options to test
Lotus biscoff is best
But woe is you, if you get it too soggy

After a great feast he had scarfed

Twas easy to float
He was nearly as large as a dwarf

A muffin is simply a cake,
With a slight difference to bake,
While one is enticing,
The other has icing,
So the one with the icing I'll take.

There once was a fellow who'd bake
Every other day, early, a cake.
He'd eat it right fast
He always had a blast
Till his teeth fell out, replaced with fakes.

An old an most greedy Dwarf king
Amassed a great hoard of gold bling
He had found out a way,
To add some day by day,
But the start of his hoard was a ring.

I really despise all these orcs,
I'd love to just stab them with forks,
To hear them all squealing,
Would be so appealing,
Oh to just stab orcs with forks.

What should my next activity be?
Do I run with my 'lock or read?
World of Warcraft brings me delight,
But my book does likewise on sight-
What a rough life 'tis for me.

There once was a world full of warcraft
You chose the Alliance or Horde craft
You grind every day
Try as hard as you may
But they'll never make a fourth Warcraft
Yeah I know I rhymed craft with craft and craft, so sue me (in the Halls of Injustice).

The lot of us used to write haiku
To get points in their multiples of two,
But now it takes longer
To write posts that point-monger,
It's limericks that we've all turned to.
