Here’s to a great new week! Your new limerick challenge is as follows:
KNEES
Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word CHEAP in it somewhere. Here are your masterpieces:
Can I puchase a van on the cheap,
Heavy-duty to carry my sheep?
Expectations were high
As I waved you goodbye,
Please don’t laugh at my rusty old heap!
I agreed to go out on a date
McDonalds is where we all ate
I looked in his eye
“You’re cheap so good-bye.”
Don’t date with the friends of your mates.
A cheap girl there once was
She’d even wear someone’s used bras
She rarely bought new
Except for her shoes
Even being rich didn’t change cause.
Some call me a cheap floozy
Well, just let them be choosy
But many aren’t so aloof
And I have the proof
A bank account that’s a doozy!
I got a birthday card, very cheap
To its sender I would say ‘bleep!’
The envelope was ripped
And in coffee it was dipped!
So I hit him until he was in a heap!
Ritu:
Old Kenneth did things on the cheap
Thinking of the savings he’d reap
He bought an old car
It didn’t go far
And ended up on the scrap heap!
Bert Stingy was a first class creep
Who did everything on the cheap.
When asked to buy a round
He’d pretend to dig for a pound
But his arms were too short and his pockets too deep.
Bony’s watch was very cheap.
It told the time and went beep beep.
“That’s all I want,
So why pay more
For a watch with functions that make me weep?”

A girl I knew once had bad knees
She never could climb those tall trees
She tried with a sling
But instead made a swing
She sure was easy to please!

Come on, I’m begging you, please
Should I get down on my knees?
Just a little bit more
Come on, I implore
I know I’m dieting… But I need cheese!

Knowing I had a mountain to climb
Never stopped me from taking my time
Except these old knees
Essentially freeze
Suppressing my feelings sublime.

Knees can be ugly you know
At a competition I had a go
For knobbly knees?
I really was the bees!
My knees you see, were on show!

I needed to do that! I kneaded as many knees out of it as I could!

I request of you on bended knees
On this blanket spread under trees
On this beautiful day
That here we might lay
And do as do the birds and the bees

Here’s two
KNEES
She sat there, just drinking her tea
When he dropped down, and fell on his knees
She looked at him once
And said “you’re a dunce –
Go back and stay up in your tree”
As I crawled on my hands and my knees
I said, “mother, oh mother,oh please!”
“pick me right up now”
“I want to look at the cow”
She shuddered and gave me a squeeze

My little girl is called Denise.
She’d often fall and graze her knees.
She’d run and trip
And sometimes slip.
I’d tell her to walk but she did as she pleased

COMEDIAN Dictator won’t like to be on knees,
No matter how many citizens die, Russians seize,
Because the citizens have voted him to be president,
Keeping everyone’s nose high in air, post Crimea, is precedent,
Under the US-NATO euphoric effect despite economic freeze!
कॉमेडियन तानाशाह घुटनों के बल बैठना पसंद नहीं करेंगे,
चाहे कितने भी नागरिक मरें, रूसियों जब्त करें,
क्योंकि नागरिकों ने उन्हें राष्ट्रपति बनने के लिए वोट दिया।
क्रीमिया के बाद, हर किसी की नाक हवा में ऊंची रखने के लिए दिया।
आर्थिक ठहराव के बावजूद अमेरिका-नाटो के उत्साह के प्रभाव में रहेंगे।
