What about Florida Keys? (I know - it's at sea)
A Lady from near Florida Keys
Was very easy to please...

Once there was a lady from Florida
She could even take down Godzilla
All the local lads called him hon'
Each hoping he would be the one
But she just grinned, winked and said "See ya!"
It is official; I have been studying too much this week.

I can't rhyme with Miami or Florida, so I've picked Homestead - province of Miami - instead. (Well that's one rhyme I can use).
A Lady who lived in Homestead
Liked to make her own bread.
Then one hot summer's day
The police blew her away
'Cos she turned to make greenbacks instead.
Has this become the limerick thread now?

Yep, limericks are fine - they've always appealed to me as blokes' poetry.
Just nobody start with that haiku rubbish, or I'll have Parker get his nephew Big Jim to throw them out! Worse than sonnets.
Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

what about an ode to a limerick?

As long as it's not an elegy to an ode for a limerick done as a sonnet, I think we could go with it.

Innovation is the life blood of literature and it seems like a six lined limerick is the new mode. Congratulations Schez !
Chlymidia. I will just get me coat then.

If you take away the tatoos, the micro-kilt, open to the navel blouse and sexy pose; add liver spots, dark circles around the eyes, gravity and girdle obesity you have meTake away the tatoos, the micro-kilt, the open to the navel blouse and the sexy pose, and she reminds me of a girl who worked on the till at the local Co-op. Its that Rock chick thing that makes all the difference
Do you mean stalking?
It's only stalking if you forget the flowers, champagne and candy
Thank you, How is your wife dealing with the women and men knocking on the door at all hours to make an appointment with the doctor of love?
Great poems by the way.
If you are from liverpool or new york, they do indeed rhyme with florida
I see, that they don't rhyme in other parts of England, thankfully
We shall have to consult with Jocky, the rhyme is right; but does it follow the rhythm?
Ah, no Atheist, you have only that timely maddness like Hamlet: to drink or not to drink, that is the question...
Heck, you could include me in that!
Gosh, I didn't realize that there were so many old lady poems....Thank you, thank you...I guess I should do a poem:
There was an old lady from....
Only problem, Paul, is if you find a lady in the florida keys that is easy to please; it may not be a lady

Brilliant, what do you say fellows; she wins hands down...
And no one but Scher could rhyme anything with Godzilla
Another solid entry for the poetry contest...
Now you all have to stop telling my deep dark secrets in these poems
I think Big Jims still in jail for lude and lacivious conduct; the ladies at the tupperware party were disappointed that no stripping cop came; so big jim did the honors...
We could do a dedication thread; How 'bout it Scher; ready for another dedication threadwhat about an ode to a limerick?
Oh gosh, Chlymidia, what a perfect rhyme:Innovation is the life blood of literature and it seems like a six lined limerick is the new mode. Congratulations Schez !
Chlymidia. I will just get me coat then.
There was a bloke with Chlymidia,
who couldn't stand the humidia,
he ran from his wife; who was carrying a knife...
ah well, I always peter out on the last line....
Like Godzilla, but horrid-er, torrid-er and florid-er.
You'll have to come in again Mick - no-one can follow that.
Now listen my friends and you shall hear....Parker, bring me a double anything
Gents, I am about to tell you the story of my life:
There was an old lady named Gail,
Who told the most amazing tales;
Gents would ask to come in,
Again and Again,
And 8 minutes later they'd bail
Applause

Enough Poetry! I mean they have sites for that kind of thing don't they?
Back to fantasy women, I often find myself wondering what Sounds looks like.
Floridian women sprinkle cuttings of their own hair onto the graves of their husbands who were killed in battle. The graves are also decorated with conches that served as the drinking cups for the deceased warriors as well as their bows and quivers
