Limerick五行打油诗

There was a young lady of Niger
Who smiled as she rode on a tiger;
They returned from the ride
With the lady inside,
And the smile on the face of the tiger (来源：专业英语学习网站 http://www.EnglishCN.com)

Why?

Two towers crashed down from the sky
Causing innocent people to die
Terror and war
What is it for?
I never will understand why

A Limerick for Paul

A middle aged man called Paul
Said 'No' when his angel did call
Please go away
I want to stay
I'm living and having a ball

I know that I'll meet you one day
But for now just please go away
I'm writing a book
If you want you can look
Just go and let me have my say

I'm good you can check with my wife
But sometimews I find I'm in strife
Don't pinch my car
Or you won't get far
And I'll make you pay with your life

I don't want to meet the Grim Reaper
But he seems to think he's my keeper
Now's not my time
I'm busy with rhyme
He'll just have to dig that grave deeper

Christine

There once was a girl called Christine
She smoked far too much nicotine
She coughed and she spluttered
The Doc came and muttered
She has to go in quarantine

Monique

There once was a girl called Monique
She had such a perfect physique
Her bust is so round
But mine can't be found
Beside her I feel quite a freak

Bertie and Gertie

A couple called Bertie and Gertie
Said life will begin when you're thirty
You lose inhibition
Try any position
Enjoy getting flirty and dirty

Ask

Don't read your teenagers diary
Life at home could become fiery
It's an easier task
More respectful to ask
Just make a discreet enquiry

There once was an old man of Esser,
Whose knowledge grew lesser and lesser,
It at last grew so small
He knew nothing at all,
And now he's a college professor

There was a young lady one fall
Who wore a newspaper dress to a ball
The dress caught fire
And burned her entire
Front page, sporting section and all

Let the heart soar freely in the sky
Get ready for the moment to strike
It is the day
To fight with grace
Give us the sword to win or die

There was a girl called Jane Eyre
Sitting at night that dark as her hair
Hard as she thought
Forgot all had been taught
She soon fell asleep in the armchair
