More limericks!

Here's our final set of limericks, this time written by Aaron N.

There once was a lady from Spain
Who had traded half of her brain
For a new text book
Just so she could look
Like she wasn't really so plain.

Eddy was a boy who loved to eat
His world revolved around his next treat.
Once when he ran out of food
He didn't know what to do
So he began to snack on his feet.

Just because I am very small
I work all day in the kids' mall.
Since it's Christmas Eve
I can't even leave
Until Santa Claus sees 'em all.

A flower grew by the roadside
Right by where the horse carriage rides
A child picked it
And even licked it
Then stuck it to a wedding bride.
Good job, Aaron, and all the other students who tried their hand at writing limericks.

Some more student limericks!

Here are a few more of our students' limericks. They're quite talented little writers, aren't they?

Sidney P wrote:

There once was a giraffe named Bob,
Who would look at his spots and sob.
He longed to be striped
Like zebra was striped,
That zebra who wished he was Bob.

and also,

After Barbara ate six moldy pies,
She slowly leaned back with a sigh,
Patted her tummy,
and cried, "Oh, yummy!"
But nobody understood why.

Mandy A penned these limericks:
A blubbering star cried in the night,
Saying, "Give me the power of flight!"
The galaxy heard.
Said, "Ha! You're absurd."
Forever a flightless, floating light.

and this one,
There was a young bee from the hive.
He was daring, fearless, quick, alive.
He challenged his skills,
And stung old man Mill!
If only the bee could revive.
In our next post, we'll have four more limericks, all written by the same young poet. Hurray! Congratulations to all of our wonderful students.

Recently some of our students wrote some limericks, which we would like to share with you.

Today's limericks were penned by Katrin Frantz.

There once was a young girl named Nancy
Who had a few ants in her pants-y
She squeaked like a mouse,
Ran into the house,
But the ants still made her feel ants-y!


There once was a greyhound named Sydney
Who laid on the couch all the evening
She ate all her chow
Yet I don't know how,
This greyhound named Sydney stays skinny!


Good job, Katrin! Next time we'll post another student's limericks!
