I hope you all had a good weekend. Here’s a new limerick challenge to kick-start your Monday.
Your new word is:
LUCK
Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word DRAMA in it somewhere. You came up with some amazing limericks:
Driving out with my oldest friend, Bruce,
Realised we were dead low on juice.
After filling was done,
Money? Seems I had none.
Anyway, that is still my excuse!
Trevor Belshaw:
One day, young Alice the farmer,
Got stuck in a pen with a llama,
She backed off a bit
When it started to spit
She could have done without all the drama.
With kids drama always occurs
Life with just two is less worse
You have one another
No drama, no bother
Well mostly, but that’s not a curse!
Some thought Marsha quite stern
Her glare could scorch and burn
No prima donna
Ignoring all drama
Yet human kindness she did yearn.
–
Richard starred in the play
A drama by Danny Kaye
A comedy to some
To others quite dumb
It was a farce of the world today.
A politician called Starmer
Caused a terrible drama
When giving his speech today.
He used terrible grammar,
Then started to stammer
And f-forgot what he was t-trying to s-say.
Squirreljan:
There once was an old drama queen
Caused chaos wherever she’d been
Whether a concert or party
Afternoon tea or karate
The fallout was always obscene.
My hubby was really into drama
He wad good at playing a farmer
In any old play
About yesterday
His knowledge of tractors? A, llama.
Nicola Daly:
Oh you can’t imagine the drama
When I went on a day trip to Palma!
I got stuck behind a tree
When I went for a pee
And then spat on by a cross llama!
As the drama of surgery loomed
And my growing anxiety bloomed
I was put at my ease
With a joke and a tease
Mood much better, no longer felt doomed.
I had no intention to harm her
No plan to induce such a drama
But my attempt to be charming
She found so alarming
That she bit me and claimed it was karma.
In times of heightened drama
We may turn to the Dalai Lama
Who says: ‘early to bed’
And ‘eat less bread’
Which is sure to make us all calmer.
There was a girl called Pamela
Who lived in Panama
She was so dizzy
Was always in a tizzy,
Oh, the drama when she lost her bra!
I don’t want to alarm her,
The last thing I need is a drama.
But I did see her Barry,
Kissing her best friend, Carrie.
Was it fate or maybe just karma.
