FlDave, across there in sunny Florida, was very disappointed that the limerick competition had ended just before he joined us. We had some great entries with members demonstrating their poetic skills, so why don't we make it a permanent feature. I would normally open with the first one, but in this case I'll mail Dave and give him that honour! Over to you Dave.

Putting the pressure on me, huh Terry? My submission: I have an English Springer named Daisy she wears a printed collar made of paisley While walking our loop her mouth scooped some cat poop Geesh can she drive me so crazy! Now that she has eaten this cat pooh she knew she did bad, her ears drooped While looking with sad eyes she jumped to my surprise and licked me all over, dangit -eww! A TRUE STORY although stronger words edited out FlDave

Brilliant Dave. I'm afraid I can only manage one verse, and even then I'm struggling! My Rosco he couldn't be springier there can't be a dog who is happier. He springs in the air, From out of nowhere, I'm sure he must break the sound barrier!

and he always makes people look twice. I'm sure he does Hazel. I was trying to think of a non animal limerick, but with Rosco laying here on my feet, he has inspired me again. My Rosco he does like to swim, it helps to keep him very trim. I do tell him no, I won't let you go, But he keeps jumping in on a whim!

Terry needs a new mower to keep his grass much lower. He drove to the store then said to 104 Wow look, that ones a goer.
Now 104 knows him too well 'No tricks Tel' is what she did yell Well having said that Terry started acting a prat No lawnmower did the salesman sell.
104 headed straight for the door her feet were barely touching the floor She shot out of the place with a very red face and vowed to shop with Terry no more.

She shot out of the place with a very red face and vowed to shop with Terry no more. Sometimes even I feel sorry for 104! Hazel knows that 104 is fearful of what will happen, every time we go to the supermarket! And 3 verses Haze, I'm really impressed. Some of us here are only too well aware of the gastronomic delights of Dave's wife's meatloaf. The rest of you have revelations of this culinary delight to look forward to! And Mrs FlDave does try so hard to please!

Whilst off in the boat I did fish But nothing would bite so I had wished for a bottle of rum and a double barrel shotgun do those seagulls make a good dish?

do those seagulls make a good dish? Poor Dave has got nothing to eat, not a fish, nor a fowl, and no meat! Dave you need the right bait, and don't rise quite so late, I bet meatloaf would go down a treat! For those not in the know, Mrs Dave's meatloaf is quite legendary across the length and breadth of Florida!

Her meatloaf it isn't so bad, in fact I think you must be mad! It contains lots of meat, it's delightful to eat, you must make her terribly sad!

Ali gasped "There's a bee in my bonnet!", but it was just a hornet sat on it. They just aren't the same, despite her loud claim, If they were then this would be a sonnet! You realise Ali that Shakespeare is supposed to be in the other thread! PMSL
