Limericks

Caferati had this exercise on writing limericks and i submitted quite a few and i'd thought i'd save these somewhere and hence posting this on my blog. Enjoy


In our circles of fun
play with all kinds of pun
rhyme your words with grime
fetch your pen and indulge in crime
But please, please don’t edit it by the ton.


Heavy and heartful sins of love
eclectic bonds form in a grove
through spasms of body and mind
tender touches scream, rewind
to that dangerous path we drove.


One day peter griffin
who writes for his morning tiffin
shouted as he got up
said, “Limericks ! that’s what we’ll throw up”
having all of us now, huffin’ and puffin’.


All idiot boxes have cable
yet in Chennai, CAS makes it unable
for us poor bored chennaivasis
hot city and not even an oasis
Soon, very soon, we are going unstable.


Peter Griffin and Sunil Nair
Oh, they make, what a pair
like chanceless light in our window
hope! for us scribblers they bestow
Thank God, we now, don’t despair.


Caferati is on the Ryze,
Scripting into us in a trice,
Each writing our own piece
Flaunting for that golden fleece
Elusive, will it be ? that Pulitzer prize.


There was a being called Harish
All he wrote was some gibberish,
Pictures many tried he, to paint
All he made, was readers to faint,
and he thought he was being stylish.
