Happy new week! Here’s a fresh limerick challenge to start your Monday.
Your new word is:
CELL
Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word GRAVY in it somewhere. You produced some great limericks:
Gravy? Make mine a Bavarian,
Resplendent in goulash Hungarian.
Add piping hot rice,
Vacuum-packed spice.
You’d never guess I’m vegetarian!
Amongst the vegans, I say this bravely:
My favourite meal is lamb and gravy;
And while I’ll risk it
Over bisto and brisket,
I know such honesty will not save me…
Get on the gravy train she said
All your problems will be dead
But though I bought shares
In apples and pears
The resulting profit could not keep me fed!
A lady who’s hair was quite wavy
Really did love her gravy
She poured it on biscuits
Or dipped in her triscuits
She’ll get along fine in the Navy!
I love gravy with all sorts of meat
Made from scratch or from granules – I cheat!
Lamb, beef, chicken or pork
Sausage stabbed with a fork
Gravy makes my meat dinner complete.
There was an inventor called Davy
Whose inventions were sometimes quite crazy.
He crossed a spud with a sponge.
It tasted like grunge,
But it sure held a whole lot of gravy!
