I loved this Limerick poem. I have read something like this for first time. Good one.

[Tony Jordan]

Your first Limerick ?
Well let me apologise Michael S, this is not the ideal way to meet such a wonderful (I think) form of expression as the Limerick.
I appreciate your review.
:)

[Michael S]

Yes, this is the first one I ever read.
Really liked it
:)

The man’s from across the pond,
A cocky, blue-eyed blonde.
When asked his name,
With no hint of shame,
He says, “Bond. James Bond.”

[Tony Jordan]

You are Miss Pammy Moneypenny - seems like you had this one your whole life lol.
Just kidding.
You limerick very well, if I may say so and so blooming suavely done

She wrote the Brit spy in one
A task not easily done
She shook him and stirred
The assassin was heard
To say ''Miss ReedWrite what have you done?"

[Tony Jordan]

Thanks for the great laughs Pam.
You're a smasher !!
xDD

[ReedWrite]

LOL...hahahahaaaa...LOVE it!
But the name is Miss Moneypammy...just sayin! Grins at you!

[Gee]

There once was a fella called Tony,
whose penis was both long and bony,
he used it to pee,
stir grandmothers tea,
and once stuck it into a pony.

Hello, I'm here...

[Tony Jordan]

Haha - Pam - sorry, I mean Miss MoneyPammy, you wanted Bond - well Gee's here instead!! lol
007.5

[ReedWrite]

LOL...OMG.
I had to cover my eyes reading Gee's limerick...it's X-rated...but, just curious...it's long and bony? :D

[Gee]

Don't ask me, it his...he told me, said it looked like a witches finger, only dirtier !!!

[ReedWrite]

Hmmmm...I am having difficulty imaging that...I think I need photo evidence. Just sayin. :D

[Tony Jordan]

[Gee]

Am I the only sensible one here...

[Tony Jordan]

Yes Gee (*wink* - humour him Pam) - you are sensible my son...

[ReedWrite]

That's a damned short measuring stick, Gee. Good thing no one really cares if we're sensible or not. ;D

[Gee]

There are shorter measuring sticks, ask Tony....

[ReedWrite]

I'm liking the Pammy names, Tony..lol. SO few people call me that and live...just sayin' :D

[ReedWrite]

Gee...I cannot even respond to that last comment. I am laughing out loud at work...and people are looking at me with odd expressions on their faces.

[Gee]

[ReedWrite]

Still waiting for my wide lens photo in PM, Tony. Just sayin. :D

[Tony Jordan]

[ReedWrite]

LOL...yes, I love you, Tony...you're awesome sauce!

[Gee]

Are you cold Tony, only, well, it's looking like a button mushroom wearing a muffler.....try shutting it in a door and running backwards, I always find that helps

[Tony Jordan]

Nyah nyah nah nah na Gee
Pammy loves me - you're blown out like last night's candle :DD

[Tony Jordan]

Oooh Pammy you got a little Tony-sauce on your chin there ...lol

[Tony Jordan]

At least I havent got two bellybuttons Gee.
Gee two bellybuttons - that was his nickname in school

[Gee]

LMAO......s**t, same old story, best go find the big fat ugly drunk bird, her with halitosis and a snatch the size of a badger that's been run over by a truck...I bet she'll love me

[Tony Jordan]

You stay the hell away from my other squeeze !!
Sorry you had to hear it like this Pam-e-la

[Gee]

She aid she'd dumped you for prematurely ruining her perm when she knelt ......No I ain't going there.

[Tony Jordan]

Haha - I want perms to come back for guys - poodle perms what were we thinking !!

[Gee]

Ahhhhhhhhhh, Kevin Keegan...I remembering having a perm a La Keegan, only trouble is when the useless b*****d took the rollers out instead of looking shaggy and sexy my hair shot up into a tight roll around my head, it looked like one of them laurel jobbies the Romans sported. I ended up having a skinhead. Having just had my ear pierced me old mum asked me if I was bent ( her words)

[Tony Jordan]

You what !?!
Hahaa - did you get your money back?
Those Ian Rush one's were even worserer, lol, perm at the back - straight on top ...feckin hell.
I love your mum - just saying.
lol

[Gee]

LOL, think that's bad. Jack's (mum) went into Marks And Sparks and, not finding the right shade of brown jumper, asked a shop assistant if they had any, ready for this, n****r brown jumpers...that is on my daughter's life. And, being of a generation past, could see no wrong in what she'd said

[Tony Jordan]

feck me

:S

[Gee]

Exactly.....

[ReedWrite]

OMG...you two are hilarious when you go at it! I sit here and just chuckle out loud and shake my head...too funny!

[Tony Jordan]

It was him what started it Pammy...
:D

[ReedWrite]

LOL...uh huh...if you say so, Tony! :D

Hi ... ;)

[James]

Limericks are awesome. I rarely post them here because no one reads them.

[Tony Jordan]

James I agree - they are very overlooked form of poetry.
Limericks are so fun.
I wonder if we (you and me) could draw up a fun way for others to get them.?

you have to enter. !!!
Thanks James.
:)

[Lyn Anderson]

Very cute. Maybe you could teach me to limerick.

[Tony Jordan]

Thank you KL - I could try.
I wrote a critique of a poet's attempts at limericks just last week and in it I tried to list the fundamentals and form of the thing, then I scrubbed the review because I found so many examples that could be considered Limericks but didn't fit my 'directions'. Turns out I didnt know the form as well as I thought. lol

I like anti-limericks the best eg.

KL wants to learn how to 'rick
Tony wants to teach her the 'trick'
Tap out the rhythm first
Or the result might be worse
And an anti-limerick is what's gonna come out.

[Lyn Anderson]

hmmm okie I shall think on it, but I actually have to work today after two days of weather cancellations.

[Tony Jordan]

Work has a habit of impinging on artist's development. You know where I am.
Thanks again!
