OLD LIMERICKS

Collected by

Michael Edwin Q.

A valiant young sportsman named Fisher

Once fished from the edge of a fissure

A fish with a grin

Pulled the fisherman in

Now they’re fishing the fissure for Fisher!

A maiden who walked on the Corso

Displayed a great deal of her torso

A crowd soon collected

But no one objected

And some were in favor of more so!

There was a young lady named Clair

Who had a magnificent pair

Or that’s what we thought

Till we saw one get caught

On a thorn and begin losing air!

There was a young lady from Penn

Who said, “Let us do it again-

And again and again

And again and again

And again and again and again!

God’ plan had a hopeful beginning

But man spoiled it all just by sinning

We trust that this story

Will bring back God’s glory

But at the moment, the other side’s winning!

One night an amorous young Sioux

Had a date with a maiden he knew

The coroner found

The couple had drowned

Making love in a leaky canoe!
