Limericks are 5 line poems, usually racy. Here are some about the lady from France.
There is a young lady from France Who's given to not wearing pants. This gross impropriety Is abhored by society, But at least she's not bothered by ants. There is a young lady from France Who cannot abide wearing pants. You really can't tell Except when she, well, Does an over-exuberant dance. There was a young lady from France Who always refused to wear pants. Her nickname was Cindy, And when it was windy Folks glanced at young Cindy askance. There was a young lady from France Who always refused to wear pants. When quizzed on this lack, She snarled, "Can the flack! My figure they do not enhance." A pretty cheerleader from France Will not wear her uniform's pants. She said, "This is slick, When I kick it's a kick, The guys give me many a glance." A mini-clad lady from France Would never take time to don pants. The men loved to stare When she sat in a chair; They always drew straws for the chance. A young lady golfer from France Can never be bothered with pants. When she putts on a hill The men get a thrill Unless she maintains a closed stance. There was a young lady from France Who couldn't be bothered with pants. When out exercising With moves mesmerizing She put all the guys in a trance. A young majorette fresh from France Would not wear her uniform's pants. She'd draw, when performing, Such crowds, even storming, They roped off the streets in advance. A medieval lady from France Was daring enough to wear pants. A knight named Sir Faust Said, "I'd ask you to joust, But I see that you don't have a lance." There was a young lady from France Who had an aversion to pants. She said, "It sounds daft, It's cold in a draft, But I hope it will lead to romance." There is a young lady from France Who wears just a thong but no pants. But what do you think? When she shows some pink, The fellas break into a dance. There is a young lady from France Who's given to not wearing pants. This gross impropriety Is abhored by society, But at least she's not bothered by ants. There is a young lady from France Who cannot abide wearing pants. You really can't tell Except when she, well, Does an over-exuberant dance.

I love the sing-song quality of your poem. It reminds me of Dr. Seuss but for adults. Well done.

Those are brilliant limericks on the ladies from France. Loved them.
Could not help writing this after reading your brilliant ones.

A sweet old lady from France
Was in the middle of a solid romance.
Her dancing shoes she strapped,
But her boyfriend she slapped
When he stepped on her toes in a dance.

a very busy young lady indeed,
this lady from France;
great rhythms, Alan, and totally
in the spirit of the form.
