There once was a cow from Jersey
ReplyDeletethat so wanted to climb a tree.
She started training:
weight lifting, running.
And renounced dairy for green tea.
There was a young lady from Jersey
ReplyDeleteWho wanted to ferry cross the Mersey
When she was denied
A boat ride, she tried
To buy a plane ticket to Turkey!
There was a young girl from the sea
ReplyDeleteWho emerged, quite nakedly
Oh, what could I do
I looked at my shoe
gave her my knitted jersey
A 5-yr-old boy from Wanstead
ReplyDeleteWas crying on his little bed
He just couldn't see
Because his jersey
Got stuck halfway onto his head
My favourite jersey is wild!
ReplyDeleteI've had it since I was a child
& though it don't fit
I won't part with it
Its loss would make *me* feel defiled
From @19ish:
ReplyDeleteFrom Jersey there once came a cow
Escaped in the prow of a scow
To Broadway she hied
Her acting she plied
The cow from the scow took a bow.
I'm no scholar from New Jersey
ReplyDeletebut I'll happily guarantee
erudite words and wit
as long as we don't quit:
Long live this game that's voting free!
New Jersey is nice as a state
ReplyDeleteThe skiing and swimming are great
But the fun I like best
Whether clothed or undressed
Is a game that will end with a mate
There was a silly guy from Brazil
ReplyDeleteWho wanted to craft a limerick
But his wish was in vain
For the door of the furglaine
Was not wide enough for his brain.
There was a stargazer named Paul
ReplyDeleteCommunications ten feet tall
He wrote rhymes on the side
Behind cartoons he'd hide
For Jersey ain't that freakin' small
There was a clever Texan guy
ReplyDeleteHis rhymes are far from gun shy
How to work Jersey in?
Never mind, let's drink gin
And raise our gimlets to the sky
There was a girl by a west sea
ReplyDeleteShe never made it to Jersey
Pond-hopped to other lands
Reckons from where she stands
New Jersey, 'tis a place to see
There was a dashing Brazilian
ReplyDeleteHis hairdo one in a million
He's slick as New Jersey
And coiffed as can be
Some might say a shining stallion
There were two smart Aussie siblings
ReplyDeleteTheir wise words float on angel's wings
Australia to Jersey
Cross continent whimsy
They tweet until the blue bird sings
There is a girl, a gift to me
ReplyDeleteEmits a glow, luminous she
Made this place, loqwacious
Serves wordplay delicious
Mighty Maryse, Belgian sweet pea ;)
Once upon a time
ReplyDeleteThere was a friend of mine
Who labeled him
A shining stallion.
To get the drift
I had to check a dictionary
He he he
by @19ish:
ReplyDeleteI tried to write a limerick
I tried to write it very quick
I spoke of a cow
A Jersey, oh wow!
And this is the end of my shtick!
