I love lymericks. It isn't too hard to come up with the first four lines but that last line has to be a humdinger. Everything depends on it. Here are a couple I wrote and a couple I've left for you to complete.


Fun With Lymericks (and a challenge)

There once was a cat named Lily
Her owners wanted her frilly
They tried her in lace
She spit in their face
And said, "Pick up my tail fool, I'm Billy!"

Once there was a cow
Who was friends with a sow
The sow had a studder
When she tried to say udder
So she just says "Hows the milktapuss?" now

Have some fun and submit some last lines for these lymerics:

There once was a teeny bopper
With eyes of blue and hair of copper
But the freckles on her nose
Were the girls biggest woes
----------------------------------

There once was a lazy dog
Whose mind was in a fog
He slept and ate
Occasionally looked for his mate
-------------------------------------

There once was a man named McCain
That mant thought was insane.
But with the choice of Obama
Or Chelsea's weird mama,
I think I'll just hop the next plane!

There was once a teeny bopper
With eyes of blue and hair of copper
But the freckles on her nose
were the girl's greatest woes
'cause her figure was just a show-stopper



There once was a lazy dog
whose mind was in a fog
He slept and ate
Occasionally looked for his mate
who was stuck in a peaty muck bog
