Happy Monday! Here is this week’s limerick challenge for you. Your word is:
LYING
Your challenge last week was to write a limerick using the word STEALTH in it somewhere. You came up with some entertaining limericks:
I went to the bank about wealth
And found I was in financial health
My account was in credit
And not at all in debit
So I don’t have to go shopping in stealth.
SILENT & DEADLY (No, not a fart!)
He was tiny, but could take care of himself
And he moved with the utmost of stealth.
Dressed completely in black
He’d launch his attack …
That was Osrith, the small ninja elf.
Squirreljan:
A builder used a lot of stealth
And earned a pot of massive wealth
He damaged trees
Destroyed the bees
He had no care for eco health.
A posh kid who wears a top hat
Abuses me, saying I’m fat.
I’ll use a stealth fighter
To hammer the blighter
And see what his mum makes of that!
Nicola Daly:
A man with incredible wealth
Had accumulated it by stealth
As he lay ill in bed
With a very sore head
Said, ‘My misdeeds aren’t good for my health.’
The bacteria is so stealth
It tries its best to steal my health
Invading tummy and mouth
Fighting back efforts going south
The solution requires much wealth.
Olaf Sturlasson’s Poetry Corner:
Sneaking around using stealth
If you frighten someone
And they have a gun
It could be very bad for your health.
I went to the bank about wealth
And found I was in financial health
My account was in credit
And not at all in debit
So I don’t have to go shopping in stealth.
Us oldies must face some harsh facts
Our Winter Fuel Payments have been axed
I’m feeling quite vexed
And wondering what’s next
Some sort of backdoor stealth tax?
(Please note this is NOT a political rant!)
Mikey thought he could steal the wealth
He needed it for his mom’s health
Broke into a window
Their reaction not slow
So much for his burglar’s stealth.
This sudden influx of wealth,
Is oh so bad for my health.
To laze about my days
In a drunken euphoric haze.
I have to proceed with stealth.
