I’ll try my best to be quick
By having a go
My trumpet I’ll blow
It’s ok I’m taking the mick.-

There was a man named Darrow
He had totally forgot about tomorrow
So he packed up his things
and even remembered the rings
to match the wedding dress his fiancée would sew

A Rosh Hashanah Limerick
With an over 5000 year evolution,
Judaism is a dynamic religious institution.
Not overly dogmatic –
I find it pragmatic.
And we get two shots at a New Year’s resolution.L’Shona Tova to all

A “Dogs And Cats” Limerick
Relationships between dogs and cats
Are more complex than just cartoon spats.
I’ve seen acts of affection
And fearless loyal protection…
I wish I could listen in on their chats. -
I woke up to her humming a limerick.
She’s the girl of my dreams; she’s fantastic.
I stood upright in bed;
By the sound I was led.
Did I hear it or was it a night trick?
