Limerick poems, humorous and cheeky five line verses with a strict AABBA rhyme scheme.

A limerick is a folk poetry form popular in the 19th century, typically naughty or obscene, and setting out to violate taboos.

Evolutions
In a butcher and clockmaker tryst
their scion anon gave skills a twist
when gears put together
in slaughterhouse weather
made her a meaty...horologist.

Rapidly Rapid
There once a bar owner
called David
On a full moon would
turn a bit rabid
He wore green bottles
on his ceiling
Which were certainly
quite appealing
As the drink flowed
at a rate that was rapid

Three Months Hard Labour
There is a young bar
on Queens Road
Where many a drink
has now flowed
The 1200 Postcards
were nude
But not particularly
rude
Yet comfortable
within their abode

Mrs Doubtfire And Mr Bloomfield
Mrs Doubtfire
There was an old woman named Doubtfire
Who dreamed to own and rule an empire
What if she could marry
Young why would she hurry
She broke the rule and had to retire.
Mr Bloomfield
There was a young man whose name Bloomfield
For his family he was a shield
He suffered a burnout
With a huge pain of doubt
Bloomfield and Doubtfire caught in the field.

Some Funny Wisdom
Ant and grasshopper
The grasshopper spent the summer singing
Winter came, he went to friend ant begging
Sweet ant, can you give me a bite?
Bite !? bite your lower lip, now Scat !!!
Mate, you take your guitar, and start dancing
Volcano
There once was a woman from Khartoum
Who wanted to sing like Oum Kaltoum
She started with soprano
it sounded like volcano
That Oum Kaltoum woke up from her tomb

Dumb stories for the smart ones
Virtual boy
two young lovers made internet marriage
the party held in a spider's carriage
but, then they never met
married over the net
had a virtual boy of miscarriage
Golden belly
a women made a medical scanner
in her body something abnormal
the doctor screamed like hell:
" there is gold. i can tell !!! "
so, i must dig deep in your stomach
Rehearsals
the teacher shouted out in the classroom
i need this to be written out too soon
and there was dead silence

Some Limericks For The Quick Fun
Numeric
she asked me, do you write limericks ?
yes, i answered, and they are numeric
i counted the syllables
same with the variables;
eventually, it sounded like Mathematics
the dead don't complain
a driver hit two men on the street
one dead, the other broke in the hit
he got up and complained
and the driver explained:
look ! your dead friend is calm in his seat
deep echoes
when he saw his tooth the dentist then yelled
oh ! this is hell, oh ! this is hell !

Nose Like Cigar
A woman with a tall nose like cigar
Who has never smoked one so far
Once she was invited
A cigar to be smoked
She stuck out her nose in the bar
PS/ Before poking fun at others, one should first take care of his hump in the mirror
Who has never smoked one so far
Once she was invited

No Puking Please
When the carnival comes to town
Cotton candy, makeup for the clowns
Don’t eat before a ride
Puking, people should hide
Always drink plenty of water.
