Limericks VIII
 

This fellow we know as Regis
Doesn’t claim to be like Jesus
He is just a guy
And perhaps that’s why
He writes limericks just to please us
 
A lady from the city of Paris
Met a man who called himself Harris
It was love at first sight
Until morning light
When Harris left Paris for Charis
 
I know a young sweetie named Brooke
She’s lovely and she can also cook
But if you turn your back
Her hand’s in your sack
You’ll find out she’s a most able crook
 
There once was a grouchy old coot
He kept telling the children to scoot
One day they refused
He stood there and mused
As they told him that his points were moot
 
I’ve met a young lady from France
She’s deadly at throwing the lance
She aims for the heart
Renders it apart
She does all of this with one glance

There once was a grouchy hedgehog
Who lived near a misty old bog
He was a hermit
Until he met Kermit
A frog who thought he was a dog
 
There once was a man who lived near the sea
He often went there to see what he might see
One day he was shocked
And his world was rocked
When he met a mermaid named Chelsea

Who tried very hard to please us.
