Here’s to a great week! Your new limerick challenge is as follows:
HELL
Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word SALE in it somewhere. Here are your masterpieces:
I went to the January sales,
I followed the M4 from Wales.
A nice day it was not,
You know what I got?
A sequence of near-epic fails!
She was becoming old and frail
Less appealing to the fun-seeking male
To keep having fun
Something must be done
So, she put herself on sale!
Ritu:
All set for the New Year’s Day sale
She arrived, then her face went all pale
The queues were so long
She tried to be strong
She went home. The trip was a fail!
My face must have gone really pale!
Even though it was up for sale.
The fridge freezer was pricey
And it was very very dicey
So I stole it and ended up in jail!
Some shoes that I want are on sale
But the contents of my wallet were pale
So I bought them on credit
And I bragged about it on Reddit
My husband saw and began to wail!
When my daughter returned from the sale
She looked shocked, and really quite pale.
‘Please don’t get too mad,
But I’ve bought a new dad.
He looked so sad, alone, on the rail.’
There was an old lady that went to a sale
She had so many items she stopped to drink ale
She stacked them up tall
Then they started to fall
She screamed and she started to wail.
I’d like to tell you the tale
Of a Shark who played fullback for Sale.
He danced through defences,
Who quite lost their senses,
As they tried to catch him and failed.
Note for those who who are unaware of the game ofrugby: Sale Sharks are a top English rugby team.
Linking People 2003:
Business by companies do Machiavellian policy hail,
As exercised by politicians to rob the rich for the poors to avail!
High prices are set at the launch period almost double;
Thereupon, price is reduced to make it affordable,
Such that not so privileged can buy during sale!
