    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.
    Uhhhh...

    The knight found the damsel distressed
    The dragon was groping her breasts
    By the side of the road
    In convertible mode
    As their Cadillac coupe had no gas

    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
    Uhhhh...

    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.

    "Now, I'd lay down my life for one's honor",
    said the knight in his shining armor.
    But he scratched his head,
    "Methinks I'm misled,
    "She can't be a teen with those knockers".

    Hey, Rube!

    Now that he had the girl, he wasn't sure what to do
    He stared at her gazongas and turned a bright-red hue
    The damsel smiled sweetly
    The knight went weak-kneed
    He found the dog and said, Miss, I and Bill must bid you adieu
    Uhhhh...

    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 dragon resorted to drinkin'
    Some grog from his flagon I'm thinkin'
    While cruisin' the sea
    on "The Honalee"
    But cruise ships are known for their sinkin'

    Drowning Dragon Sorrows

    The cruise, till it sank, did some good
    And the grog helped the way that grog should.
    Karaoke was playing.
    The dragon was swaying.
    The moon did whatever it could.

    But Pirates saved the ship and it's crew
    Not what Pirates are oft' known to do
    But they'd heard of some booty
    And I don't mean the nudie
    From the french nudist tour group, LaRue.

    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
    Uhhhh...

    You said Bill and the knight bid adieu
    to the damsel in post 202
    Then she asked #203
    where do dragons flee
    so on the sea the story ensued.

    I thought you were trying to end the dog and knight part with "adieu". I apologize if I misunderstood.
    I'll sit back and just watch for now as I don't want to ruin the fun flow that was going on. Hardly an allegory?

    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.
    Uhhhh...
