Limericks VI
 

I once met a very fine lass
At her I did make a pass
She surprised me by saying
What shall we be playing
I replied we’d be fishing for bass
(I replied we’d be going to mass)
(I replied we’d be mowing the grass)
 
I once had a date with Kate
Fate made it so she was late
So I had a drink
Then I saw my shrink
She helped me to not hate the wait
 
I once met a lady from Nome
She wanted to travel to Rome
We took the first flight
We got there that night
No more Nome now Rome is our home
 
I once met a lady named Maddie
She owned a brand new red Caddy
She drove way too fast
More than once in the past
She wound up in a wild rice paddy
 
I know an exotic young miss
She certainly knows how to kiss
She’s smart and she’s playful
She’s pretty and graceful
Spending time with her is pure bliss
 
There once was a mortician
Who became a musician
His music was bad
It was much too sad
Now he’s a politician
 
There once was a poor woodcutter
Who found a bowl full of butter
He ran back to his hut
Fed it all to his mutt
Then watched the butterflies flutter
