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.

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

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

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.
