There once was an Elve without shelve
Who into nostalgia did delve
And found his way back to
The Plaza that was new
Oh What joy it had brought to himselve

She was old and forgotten
Her memories not yet rotten
How pleasant they were then
Sure all would be as on the glen
Where is all now begotten.

To write a good limerick is hard
You have to be kind of a bard
The trick is the rhythm:
You have to stick with 'em!
Or else you're just writing a card.

This dog is awash in the rain
Glaring up at the clouds with disdain
The drip drops are endless
His Linny does digress
She's back to her Plaza campaign!

Oh, look, it is Linny rejoining!
With her dog wet from the rain pouring.
Spring showers bring May flowers
and wet pups beyond our powers;
but also plaza pals who are returning.

There once was a fellow in York
who one night refused to eat pork
When asked why the reason
Was it out of season?
He answered "I haven't a fork!"

I think I can fairly say most
See high numbers as worth a boast
So, lacking decorum
On many a forum
I make lots of low-content posts

Along the twisting highway road
in a shiny red car, we drove
out my window, I watched the forested hills
rolling over the scape, giving me the thrills;
and pleasant imagery of walking the old Dwarf Road.

You thought me gone for all and at once,
but to think so would make you a dunce
For I am eternal
and nothing supernal
Don't think I'm dead if I haven't been around in months
Strange Fruit got holes in the flesh but it ain't gonn' spoil cause it never was fresh

If Tolkien were to write a lim'rick
I wonder what subject he would pick
A dwarf and an elf
Climb the Dwarrowdelf?
Whatever he chose, it'd be slick.

How she would walk
And at the same time talk
It is amazing what she can
And even not fly by then
Sure it was all just a hawk.

My poor headphones have broken
and I am now utterly heartbroken
But don't get to near me,
Else I might stab thee
For I truly dislike those who are outspoken

I slipped from the health plan
which prevents me from doing the cancan
For below and above my belt, bulging
due to the processed food; indulging
Oh, how I envy that swinging Tarzan

When Pippin looked into the stone
And saw the lord on his dark throne
He squeaked and he squawked
He might have then talked
Could he have produced more than "GROAN"

My last limerick was actually quite bad
and re-reading it now makes me sad
what was I thinking
I must have been drinking
Broken and heartbroken? You mad lad

There are many fans in a strop
Because of the series called ROP
Yet though they protest
They'll watch with the rest
And help the show not be a flop

In all lands from England to Cali
We've seen the ROP season finale
The rants have been made
So we lie down in glade
To rest for two years 'til we rally

When the end is nearly neigh
And someone close comes to die
I reflect what I have done
Settle life as much can come
And think what meal is left to fry.

The orcs in the dungeons tell me to say:
"Garbargan sok tol bragar nik-ray"
Alas my translation
Has lost all ablation
So I'm forced to shrug and say "okay"

One limerick for the found golfball in here. :tongue:

And so the day comes to an end
I wonder what will say a friend
Riddling towers are not my suit
They will bear for me no fruit
What explanation that might be send.

One questionnaire was on order
One garden party on the border
Let us gather up and dance
Until we fall in deep trance
Christmastime is a hoarder.
