Ohhhh, c'est bien!
Bravo, mon ami! ;)

2017 Update:

There's Nothing More Pathetic than a Man in Love

My wife's gone to visit her mom
On the island of (far-flung) Taiwan.
Now freed of my tether
I only ask whether
And how I can keep her from harm. :sad:

Thanks, kiz. :)

Tomorrow's the end of the planet
When a comet or something will slam it
With cosmical gasses
And when all that passes
I'll have me a cheeseburger, damn it!

There once was a day to give thanks
Invented by Puritan Yanks.
Some say, Thanks for nothin'
Then eat up their stuffin'
And savor sweet cranberry angst.

There was a young pilgrim named Buffet
Who went to the isle of Nantucket
Dined with Algonquian
And some of their kin
All while his horse ate from a bucket


(Not sure how Buffett rode his horse to Nantucket, but them pilgrims was clever)

It was probably a seahorse. How else would it have fit in the bucket?

A tall horse colored chestnut
Pilgrim astride riding there but,
Upon him came sneakin’
One last Mohican
Intent on giving a haircut

There was a bold Indian named Squanto,
As friendly to white men as Tonto.
He told them dead fishes
Would perk up their dishes,
Then took off for Provincetown pronto.

OMG ... I am in the midst of a Limerick show-down....
Go Sancho!
Go Pompey Bum!!
Luvin' it!

There once was a dude from L.A.
Who claimed he’s an Indian Brave
Said call me Tonto
But then his Aunt Flo
Said everyone knows him as Dave

(I love this thread. I’m not any good at it, but I do love it nonetheless.)

I've eaten too well, I confess;
My belly should not be compressed.
Oh, ask not the reason!
Should someone start squeezin'
All things would be clearly expressed.

(Just have fun and play with the language :) ).

A middle aged turkey called Sue,
Was recently listed in "Who's Who."
If you find that surprising,
Consider surmising,
It's as normal as a cow that goes "Moo."
