Fish mousse

Posted on October 3, 2018 by twitmericks

A truck full of fish hit a moose/

And barrels of herring broke loose./

To clear it away,/

The role mops would play/

Was sluicing the smorgasbord juice.///

Chantilly filly

Posted on October 2, 2018 by twitmericks

A horse galloped into a bar/

Where drinkers enjoying a jar/

Said: “Why the long face?/

You’ve run your last race,/

You’re now a big internet star!”///

My life of rhyme

Posted on September 28, 2018 by twitmericks

On Saturday, 12 until 4/

Mick Twister will set out his store,/

Advising on rhyming/

And meter and timing,/

Free entry (for lack of a door).///

Yes, on for a short rhyme only – another chance to catch one of Mick Twister’s limerick workshops on Saturday September 29, 2018, in London N19.

Judge judged

Entitled alumnus of Yale/

Who, being accused/

By those he’d abused,/

Would bluster and bully and wail.///

Who popped up right under his keel/

And wielding an oc-/

Topus gave him a sock/

For rudely disturbing its meal.///

Packet in!

Posted on September 27, 2018 by twitmericks

The poor Royal Mail would be most/

Obliged to stop getting a host/

Of empty crisp packs/

Appearing in sacks/

For Walkers each day in the post.///

Addressing the top UN crowd/

The POTUS declared he was proud/

He’d done so much more/

Than any before,/

Which had them all laughing out loud.///
