Scuba Limericks

:whack: You keep leaving off the last line. Here I'll help....

Was my sig. his inspiration?
Is this a case of plagiarism?
SG1 was the root of my note
Jackson and Carter I did past quote.

But was it a lack of imagination? :doh:

You know this day you will dunk
Why did the day before did you get drunk?
Plan your dive and dive your plan
All the asprin won't hold your hand.

And what fun is diving in a funk?

I spied a starfish with arms abundant
They seemed to me to be redundant
I watched the sea star as I floated and hovered
The sassy thing reached for where my bathing suit covered

Taking it home wasn't wrong, or was it? :20:

Here finish this:

I spotted a moray eel
who's body I noticed was thick
It swam along
all slow and calm
It reminded me of a..........Your turn! :rofl2:

Hey smoke,

First and second lines rhyme, third and fourth lines rhyme but don't rhyme with 1 and 2. The 5th line rhymes with the 1st, but not 3 and 4.

AABBA

But I've enjoyed your quatrains as they are.

Eel & thick? :doh: No wonder you have so much trouble with limericks....

How about...
I spotted an eel that was thick,
My hand into his home I did stick.
He didn't like me in his hole,
and so to the hospital I go.
That's what happens when you're dumb as a brick.

:gulp18: There are rules?!!!! No one told me there are rules.
Now let me get this straight........oh maybe later.......now my head hurts.

If that wasn't bad enough now my quatrains are showing.:sulkoff: eepwalla

Poor Smokey doesn't know a limerick from a poem, :ne_nau:
Even with 54 pages of limericks to show him. :doh:
He posts quatrains, and lines that don't rhyme,
But he makes us laugh, so that's just fine. :rofl2:
It's a good thing he's funny, guess we'll keep him.

Smokey,

There is also a rhythm too, but don't worry about it yet. You can't fully appreciate the hilarity of some limericks without hearing them. I had the good fortune to run into a witty drunk lawyer in a bar who reeled them off impomptu. He had the entire place roaring. And it helps to have a touch of Irish blood too.

I think they're sublime because you have to pack a lot of imagery into a small package.

I think I'll hang out in the Dog Park. Maybe someone will take me home as a pet.:51:
I promise I won't show or use my quatrain, please don't cut it off.

That must have been a blast!! I've been known, when in my cups, to start spinning them out. (And they work so much better than cheesy pick-up lines) LOL
