A Quick Limerick

There’s a buxom girl in Chester

Whose breasts are clearly the best-er

She’ll let you feel

To see if they’re real

And if you politely request her

SHAKESPEAREAN POEMS

There was a young girl called Cymbeline

     Who was every man’s midsummer night’s dream

     Though two gents from Verona

     Preferred Desdemona

     Who’d perform as you like it, it seems

*

  Said Pericles, she’s clearly a teaser

     An untamed shrew this Lucretia!

     Because measure for measure

     I’ve heard she’s a pleasure

     So for God’s sake Julius seize her.

LOVE POEM

We’d been watching an old cartoon

When you said, like all of a sudden,

I thought the bloke who played Gepetto was good

But I found Pinocchio a bit wooden.

A laugh jumped out of my mouth

And I said : No-one loves a critic.

But I was wrong. I fell for you

Now you’re my Jiminy Cricket.

BATHHOUSE

First we wash the Muslims, then we wash the Jews

Next we wash the Christians, followed by Hindus;

We wash the Arabs and the Kurds

The Slavs, Magyars and Serbs

The Africans and the Asians

Aussies, Ruskies and Haitians

It’s not so much a madhouse

As an international bathhouse

And we invite our enemies and our friends in

For a party of ethnic cleansing

A little bit more adult…

COWS

(A joke in rhyme)

There was I thinking cows were friendly

And never got in a bad moo-ed.

But I don’t think there’s a funny side now

I’ve seen the change in their attitude.

I was walking across a field

When a herd basking in the sun

Spotted me and charged

So, panicky, I began to run.

I was near the gate when I tripped and fell

Or I would have made it safe and sound

And on the hefty beasts came

As I crashed down to the ground.

They were mad those cows as they bore down on me,

They were bellowing and half-crazed

And I was about to be trampled or gored to death

But fortunately, I was only grazed.

(Think about it)
