On the chest of a barmaid at Yale
were tattooed the prices of ale,
and on her behind,
for the sake of the blind,
was the same information in Braille.

Oooh, I love the braille idea!

*groan* 

I'll find some good ones out when I'm not half asleep.  That one made me giggle. :D

That reading Brail thing isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be.Laughing

I've got a tonne of them but none suitable for a family website.

That one was funny. I'm sorry to say I never quite got limericks. I'm too American I guess Embarassed

Ha ha!  Is that what the Irish mean when they say, 'enjoy the craic'?  I'm shocked.

@KathleenDuffy, I have often wondered about such things,

Okay Chef. You asked for it and may well wish you hadn't.

 

Here's one

 

There was a young man from Japan

Who wrote poetry no one could scan

When asked how it’s done

He said it’s quite fun

I try to squeeze as many words into the last line as I possible can

*groan*  I have only myself to blame.  Laughing

(Such groaners are often my favorites.)

I'm disappointed. Where are all the Limerickisists?

There was a young man from Madras

Who had the most beautiful ass

Not rounded and pink

As you'd possibly think

It was grey, has long ears, and ate grass

Hehe - perfect! Smile

Jo still owes us one (or more)!

Seems it's up to me and thee Chef

There once was a man from Nantucket

No, can't do that one.

A man stood on a bridge at Buckingham

Can't do that one either.

Okay, here goes

There once was a lady named Bright

Whose speed was much faster than light

She set out one day

In a relative way

And returned on the previous night.
