Here’s to a great new week! Your new limerick challenge is as follows:

Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word KNEES in it somewhere. Here are your masterpieces:
Knowing I had a mountain to climb
Never stopped me from taking my time
Except these old knees
Essentially freeze
Suppressing my feelings sublime.
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.
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!
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!
Ritu:
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!
I request of you on bended knees
On this blanket spread under the trees
On this beautiful day
That here we might lay
And do as do the birds and the bees.
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.
Linking People 2003:
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!
