Happy Monday! Here’s a new limerick challenge to start your week.
Your new word is:
GRAVY
Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word DIET in it somewhere. You produced some amusing limericks:
My wife just put me on a diet,
Insisted I should at least try it.
When she’s not about
I get Mars bars out
And just like the Scots, I deep-fry it!
The recipe said I should fry it.
Maybe I really should try it.
Put a dollop of cream,
And some chocolate between,
I think I love this new diet!
On TikTok, they revamped an old diet
Which has caused some users to riot.
If you’re hungry, of course
You must, ‘eat a horse’.
Go on, try it, before you decry it.
My diet is a bit up and down
Maybe a mint choc chip crown?
I’ll eat that one day
Then protein and whey
I just say that I’ve ‘overgrown’!
Staying on a diet is hard
When you dig butter and lard
You have to be strong
For it to last long
Or you’ll never see the final reward!!
Think I need me a healthier diet
Too much rich food just causes disquiet
My digestion complains
At my adipose gains
And creates quite an internal riot…
