LIMERICKS

There once was a man from Dundee,

Who got stung in the leg by a bee.

His mother said "Stop,

And drink a Yop,

And that will heal your knee."

Dean

 

There was a man on a horse,

Who saw a nurse with a purse.

Looking at the shape of her head

He was stroke dead saying with dread

"Please where is my nurse?"

Edmond

 

There was a man with no clothes,

Who was known to pick his nose.

One day he started to fly,

But no-one knew why,

And the man he started to pose.

Alan

 

A motorbiker called Jake ,

Crashed his bike into a lake.

He got very wet,

Killed his pet,

And now he misses his snake.

Mark

 

There was a young lady called Milly,

She always ate a red chilli.

She’d go red in the face,

Go in a race,

Then she’d sleep with Billy.

Mairéad

 

There was a young boy from Cork,

Whose finger got stuck in a fork.

He cried for help,

His sister yelped,

"You really are a dork."

Michelle Mc

 

I wonder what happened to Jake,

I heard he fell into a cake.

I went into his shop,

And heard a big pop,

And just noticed he was trying to bake.

Niamh

 

Long ago in a place called Hong Kong,

They invented a game called Ping Pong.

But the table snapped,

Because of the fat rat,

They never played Ping Pong in Hong Kong again.

Zoe

 

One day I saw a bear,

He was eating a pear,

Then I saw a cat,

The cat said to the rat,

"This is not fair."

Olekseii

 

There was a young boy called Bill,

He had a passion to kill.

When he got home,

He picked up the phone,

And left them a knife in their will.

Kim

 

I wonder what happened to Jake,

He probably ended up in a lake.

He slipped on the way down,

He looks like a clown,

Cause it turned out the bridge was fake.

Gemma Mc

 

I wonder what happened to Jack,

I think he fell in a sack

And cut it open with his penknife

Then killed his beautiful wife

And now he’s back to hijack.

Alison

 

There was a young man called Sam,

He always said the word "Damn".

His friend is called Timmy,

His brother is Jimmy

And everyone loves ham.

Aidan

 

There was an elephant the size of a tree,

His favourite number was three.

He saw a hare,

Then made a chair,

Somebody then told him to scream.

Tristan

 

I wonder what happened to Jack
He probably fell in a sack.

They didn’t care, they were in bed

Then they were looking at "Father Ted"

And they didn’t come back.

Aaron

 

In Africa one afternoon,

An elephant sat on a spoon.

He saw a mouse,

And smashed his house,

He rebuilt a new house till noon.

Marion .

 

There was a young girl called Claire,

Who got chewing gum stuck in her hair.

She called her Ma for help,

But all she could yelp,

Was "Darling, I don’t really care!"
Danielle

 

There was a young lady from Clare,

Who always dressed up as a pear.

It was orange and black,

And smelled like a sack,

And then the pear did tear.
