Limericks

 

A man who was asked out to dinner

Came back looking hungry and thinner.

He said ‘Don’t look baffled,

The dinner was raffled,

And somebody else was the winner.’

 

Spike Milligan

 

 

 

Aesop told tales, often funny,
Teaching lessons but still, for my money,
In a race that is fair
'Tween tortoise and hare,
The best odds are still on the bunny!

 

Chris Strolin

 

 

 

A sailor, astern in the craft,
Was ordered to take himself aft.
He responded with laughter:
"If I go any after
I'd float in your wake like a raft!"

 

Tim Alborn



There once was a woman named Bright
Who drove her car faster than light
She set off one day
In a relative way
And got back the previous night.
