Chasing Maybelline Down the Highway
Maybelline was the damsel's sweet name.
The brave knight thought the dragon's to blame.
He should find someone else,
But there ain't no one else
For a knight with his sight on that dame.
Nice one, Melanie! I hope to read more!
Here's what the damsel and her dragon might by playing if they were on motorcycles: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UWRypqz5-o
This thread welcomes all limerickcists - even if you're from North Carolina
Limericks make you laugh and sometimes groan
To make one up you won't need your trombone
Just between the two of us
The rhymes can be ludicrous
Like most things they're better with friends than alone
*I'm still trying to figure out what to do about the unrequited love of a knight-errant in a V-8 Ford chasing a damsel and a dragon in a Cadillac convertible coup up Grapevine Hill.
This sort of thing happens from time to time
The knight leaped gallantly from the V-8 Ford
Charging ahead while unsheathing his sword
The damsel she gasped
The knight then laughed
When everyone saw Dan-Dragon had prematurely scored
How the Damsel Got Tossed From Dragon to Knight
With a flourish the knight's on the scene.
The foul dragon retreats through the green.
The pure damsel is saved
From a dragon depraved,
But that knight's now alone with the teen.
So She Lied About Her Age
The damsel sat wondering why
The good knight didn't give her a try.
Do voluptuous curves
Undermine knightly nerves?
Where's that dragon when men say goodbye?
The Pirates' Reward for Saving the Cruise Ship
There was plenty of booty aboard
Including the kind one can hoard.
With the ship saved from sinking
The grog's saved for drinking.
The showgirls? A giggly reward.
Boy! Talk about a climactic scene!
The damsel was distraught there was no consoling
The dragon was out at sea pitching and rolling
Odd end to a story
Hardly an allegory
Bill the dog and the knight just up and went bowling
Allegorically speaking, I never metaphor I didn't like.
(^good one, Melanie)
Awe shucks there's no plot we've agreed on
Ain't gotta be no rhyme nor reason
We're on a run
Just having fun
However not to rhyme would be treason
*I just thought it'd be funny for a dog named Bill and a chivalric knight in a full suit of shiny armor to go and spend an evening together at a Bowling Alley.
