Valentine Contest Final Reminder

[rockpile]

Hopper, please don't take offence
But your limericks are totally dense
So get a book of poems
Go right through them
And write one that finally makes sense.

[Hopperbin]

Soup today I cooked to perfection
Onions carrots and cream made an errection
Froze most of it today
I pat myself say horray
This soup needs no correction

Saturday I plan do it again yay
She will say its the best day
If anyone is frustrated
And wants to get mated
Cook some hopperbin soup I say

[farmaholic]

It is again that time of year
That most romantic men fear
For they know not what to do
How do I express my love for you
What is it I get for my Dear

With our highest regards
We let down our guards
In it will be diamonds
But I am from the Highlands
so I got her a new deck of cards


....Anyone care to carry this on with the reaction lymric

[farmaholic]

Oops I spelled limerick wrong, I said lymric or should it be "lamerick"?

The winner of the contest is braveheart with the following limerick:

There once was a guy named Charlie,
Whose passion was riding a Harley.
With a cycle of chrome,
Thru the country he'll roam,
And no longer will worry about barley.

Congratulations, Braveheart! You composed with good technical ability, and form. Even a non-AVer can relate to Charlie. More importantly, I felt it's a timely tribute, and one all AV'ers would view as a special salute to Charliep. So, claim it as your own, Charliep and show it to your friends and family.

Thank you so much to each AV'er who took the time to write a limerick/s. The entries were so varied it was interesting and I read them closely. (am a stickler for spelling). Hopperbin was definitely the most prolific writer. Bill Duke's and Nudge's series of multiple limericks had such good rhyme and good humour, they deserve special mention.

And some of you were so Valentinish, ...."rubber boots", "city queen", "pretty girl", "my Dear", "I fell for love"... well you know, all the mush-words, I can only respond with a smooch. Pars

[Braveheart]

I really can't believe that I won.
I just wanted to have some fun.
I like lots of smiles,
People rolling in aisles,
It's too bad the contest is done.

[Braveheart]

Thank you.

Braveheart

I'm sure your the only one on here who is surprised that you won! Wink Wink!!!

[Braveheart]

Why Forage what to imply?
With a comment so horribly wry.
Don't move to contempt
When you made no attempt
And you let this contest pass by.
