Happy Monday, all! I hope you had a great weekend and this week is a good one.
Your new limerick challenge is:
YAWN
Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word GUILT in it somewhere. You produced some fantastic limericks:
Guilt is a feeling quite painful
Unproductive and kind of disdainful.
It can lead to depression,
Low spirits, obsession;
Try doing a job that’s more gainful.
The builder still felt a great guilt
With RAAC concrete the roof was built
The school was shut down
As the roof made a groan
But luckily no blood had been spilt!
A girl with guilt, had tears that spilt
Down her face and onto her lap
She cried enough
So her nose was stuffed
And a Kleenex pile she built!
Chris Page:
The first time Gerald used RAAC
He thought there was no turning back
And so he felt no guilt
The ceiling started to crack.
With no trace of shame or guilt
Confident Donnie lifted his kilt
But when Annie McCloud
Laughed out loud
Donnie’s resolve began to wilt.
Someone has spiked the teachers’ tea.
The staffroom was locked, so who has the key?
He emptied his pockets,
So all could see:
“NOT GUILTY!” was Bony Tony’s plea.
It’s Wales versus Scotland,
And I’m riven with guilt.
As we sing Bread of Heaven,
You can hear us in Nefyn.
And my partner rocked up in a kilt.
