Here is a cute little limerick by William Jay Smith. Enjoy!
An old man from Okefenokee
Liked to sing in a most dismal low key;
He would perch on a log
And boom like a frog
Through the dark swamp of Okefenokee.

Here is a cute little limerick by N.M. Bodecker. Enjoy!
An indignant young person in Spain,
Looked out at a gray, grimy rain
And cried: “Will you clear!
Who told you to come here?
You horrible Old English Rain.”

Here is a cute little limerick by an anonymous author. Enjoy!
There was a young lady of Crete,
Who was so exceedingly neat,
When she got out of bed
She stood on her head,
To make sure of not soiling her feet.

Here is a cute little limerick by N.M. Bodecker. Enjoy!
A school bus driver from Deering
Disconcertingly kept disappearing:
He would head for Cape May,
But end up in Bombay
— because something was wrong with the steering.

Here is a cute little limerick by Gelett Burgess. Enjoy!
I’d rather have fingers than toes;
I’d rather have ears than a nose;
And as for my hair
I’m glad that it’s there.
I’ll be awfully sad when it goes.

Here is a wonderful limerick by William Jay Smith. Enjoy!
There was a young lady named Rose
Who was constantly blowing her nose;
Because of this failing
They sent her off whaling
So the whalers could say: “Thar she blows!”

Here is a wonderful limerick by Anthony Euwer. Enjoy!
No matter how grouchy you’re feeling,
You’ll find the smile more or less healing.
It grows in a wreath
All around the front teeth —
Thus preserving the face from congealing.

Here is another wonderful limerick. Enjoy!
There was an old man of Blackheath
Who sate on his set of false teeth.
Said he, with a start,
“O Lord, bless my heart!
I’ve bitten myself underneath.

Here is another wonderful limerick. Enjoy!
There was a small maiden named Maggie,
Whose dog was enormous and shaggy,
The front end of him
Looked vicious and grim —
But the tail end was friendly and waggy.
