There’s this kitten whose name is Kitty
It’s said that she’s rather witty
She can walk the talk
You won’t see her balk
Now she’s mayor of New York City
I know this fellow named Matlack
He lives in a high tech tin shack
With his dog Rufuz
Who is no doofus
Together they never look back
There once was a fellow from France
He certainly knew how to dance
He hopped and he skipped
He bopped and he dipped
But he stopped when he split his pants
I once met a gal named Maggie
She wore clothes that were far too baggy
When I asked her why
She replied not shy
It’s to hide what’s a tad too saggy
I know this gal named Christine
She keeps her house most pristine
She scrubs and she mops
At dusting she’s tops
Even her nose has a sheen
This radio show host named Till
Is testing the power of my will
He's a pompous ass
He's so full of gas
I've had my fill of Till's swill
The town I live in is bizarre
It seems more like a crazy bazaar
The politicians
Should be morticians
And the mayor thinks he’s a tsar
Just as much fun as Nursery rhymes, were in my youth, So entertaining, love them.

wow-My father used to do Limericks really well and my Grandfather did poetry about Ireland-guess you can tell who I take after eh? LOL-great poem Reg-don't think I will ever try and do a Limerick tho
I love making up limericks, too! They're so expressive and sooooo much fun! I used to stand outside at night, looking up at the stars, after a few, and entertain family and friends with them! Thanks for reminding me of those times! These are great!
I love them one and all, Reg! But, Hey! Dem are true poetic Limericks, me friend, NOT nonsense :o)
No matter my pain, you've inspired me to write a few for St. Paddy's Day'
Blessings and Love, dear friend - Micke
What a wonderful poem Regis. After having a crazy day, this sure put a smile on my face. I miss reading your muse. Just haven't been on the den in quite some time.
Dearest beautiful Regis,
These are F A N T A S T I C!
I thoroughly enjoy your wonderful humour, and especially love the dancing in France one!
Biggest joy to You!!
Love, Suzie :-D
loved them Reg -- the last two are my favorites -- the bite into the reality of things in today's crazy, exasperating world -- send us some more of your limericks -- humor keeps depression away -- love, joy, and much love to you my dear friend -- Jon Michael
Great humor, Regis. My favorites are the one on France & Maggie. Maggie's had me stopped in my tracks, thinking...he went there...lol. Love and Hugs:)

Regis,
Thank you for the laughs; I love the fellow from France but the one outstanding one for me is the radio show host named Till - that one's truly splendid.
