I once had a girl o’re for dinner  
Doing my best so i could win her  
But my supper was awful  
(No one likes greasy waffles)  
And tasted like it was from Winter!

There once was a guy from Toledo  
Who liked to ride his bike in a speedo  
But a bump he did hit  
Up the tailpipe it went  
And changed the baratone to soprano!

There was a young lady from Venus  
Whose body was shaped like a penis.  
“Come give me a hug,  
And I’ll splatter the rug,  
'Cause we haven’t got latex between us!”

## Is it just me, or do I have a twisted mind?

There once was a man named Horatio  
Who pondered at length on the ratio  
Of men to women who believe  
It’s better to give than receive:  
Women won, hands down, with fellatio.

For months on this board I’ve read posts  
On science, religion, and personal roasts,  
Politics and dreams;  
But my favorites, it seems,  
Are the ones about breasts and butts and  
bedposts.

With TennHippie’s thinking, (so base!)  
And that lecherous smirk on his face,  
How could you admire him  
Or I divinely inspire him  
To represent **me** in this place?

While I flirt with the likes of Dianne, Byz, and Trish;  
Spiritually speaking, I’m a satellite dish.  
I’m human, don’t be awed  
Just 'cause I channel GOD;  
I can’t pee wine or multiply fish.

There is a nice whore in Pawtucket  
Who can grab your cob and shuck it  
The sign over her door  
Is graced with this lore  
If you can find better pussy cheaper then f#ck it

Ronald McDaonald was an itinerant clown  
His shtick included pulling his pants down  
He showed the little boys  
How to play with their toys  
Until thier parents would run him out of town

A guy with an oral obsession  
Met a girl who suffered repression.  
But he did not spurn 'er  
For she was a quick learner  
Once she found out “blow” was just an  
expression.

Guys can really be such damn fools  
With their focus on organs as tools.  
Thinking “bigger is better”  
When in fact gals get much wetter  
With sweet talk and caresses (and in pools).

My woman done gone and left me  
She used to aim whilst I pee  
Now I’m distraught  
At frightening thought  
That she’s fondling another’s wee-wee

There was a court jester whose prose  
was so bad everyone laughed through his nose.  
They thought he was illiterate,  
but in fact it was deliberate.  
He was banned for bad grammar, I suppose.

There once was an infamous hall,  
Where there was no gravity at all.  
What a glorious feeling  
To screw on the ceiling,  
And to ball on the wall and not fall.

High school was boring as hell,  
But one English teacher was swell.  
I wish she were here  
(She’s departed, poor dear)  
To see how Lit class served me well.

A delightful poem is the limerick.  
Silliness makes you a winner. (Ick!)  
You may freely abuse  
Any word that you choose;  
e.g. the Maneuver Himherlick.

There is a young Clinton named Chelsea  
Whose looks most men find kind of cheesy  
I don’t quite concur  
My heart she makes purr  
I hope that doesn’t make me sound sleezy

SUN-E-VU DAIRY- Hoping you get butter soon

Some brave mountaineers climbed Everest  
Putting their minds and bodies to the test  
Some would summit  
Others would plummet  
And have an icy grave for their final rest

SUN-E-VU DAIRY- Emptying Teats twice daily

Ever since I emerged from the womb  
I’ve loved limericks, and will to the tomb.  
Though I’m not good at timing  
And even worse at rhyming,  
I’ll continue to write them with aplomb.

They were just getting good: don’t stop!  
Humor as good as O. Wilde’s (the fop)  
In case you were wondering  
About this shameless blundering:  
Yes, I’m getting this thread back on top!

I can’t keep this up there alone,  
Though on and on I could drone.  
Getting sleepy and surly  
Because morning comes early  
When you live in the Eastern Time Zone!
