Limericks for Dad

My dad LOVES limericks. He sends them to me in texts all the time. He's pretty good, too. So one day I wrote a few for him. Here they are.

There once was a dad named Ben--

Well, actually, Benjamin--

He loved his son (me).

He was all full of glee.

He was studly and handsome.  The en...d.

I once knew a Truman the Fourth

Who had not a lisp, of courth.

His son was the Fifth

(What the heck rhymes with Fifth?)

But he lived quite a few miles north.

There was a great guy named Benji

Who went on a limerick frenzy

But his rhymes only rhymed

A portion of the time

And his meter was a little off, too.

i love the first one the most. what an end, "the en...d" hahaha. very funny. maybe you could do much more like your father as you say so. :)

excellent. fun. funny.

of course rhymes fine with Fourth. So you didn't need to may it "courth." but I think you would have lost something if you didn't use it anyways.

Great job Mr. Booth. Thank you.

Yes Man

these must have been fun to get from him. stuff like that would certainly brighten a dreary day. can't do limericks myself, because i can't rhyme. but that was an entertaining read
