There once was a hiker from Stockton  
With no shoes on the feet that he walked on.  
Instead he wore hose  
Which did not pinch his toes,

@Rico posted elsewhere: ‘With a name like Smuckers… You’d better not try to write any limericks.’

So I replied with this:

_There once was a man named Smuckers,_  
_Who wrote out a rhyme for some truckers._  
_‘Fuel prices are high,’_  
_He said with a sigh,_  
_‘Financially you’re out-of-luckers.’_

OK, that’s not very good. It was the best I could do in a rush. I tried again after my shower.

_There once was a man named Smuckers_  
_Whose products delivered sweet puckers_  
_When asked by some men,_  
_‘Do you make it with hen?’_  
_He said, ‘I use berries, not cluckers!’_

And then I had to follow up that one with this one:

_There once was a crazy old coot_  
_Who said cackleberries are fruit_  
_‘But they don’t grow on trees,’_  
_He conceded with ease,_  
_‘They come out of a chicken’s patoot!’_
