For those Limericks, both witty and slick
Brendan LawlorMay 9 2021, 5:27pmNational Limerick Day's coming up quick,
All our bards and our poets will be sick
with delight, so they say,
12th of May, thats the day,
For those Limericks, both witty and slick

Grrr... typos !
Gordon PlaceMay 9 2021, 6:43pmI thought of it during the week
Said Brendan's forgotten to speak
With Mullee, Bushe & Nunan
Fresh out of Cocoonin
We'll see Wednesday whose still at their peak
Alice ClancyMay 12 2021, 7:49amWell what a crappy year ‘21 has been,
With nary a race nor imra face to be seen,
The forums’ been quiet,
Save for the odd civil riot,
Bards of imra; you’re awaited with glee!
Brendan LawlorMay 12 2021, 9:52amNow the day it has started quiet slow,
With not many rhymes on the go,
Last year there was gore,
And slanders galore,
But the Limericks then started to flow
Jeff FitzsimonsMay 12 2021, 11:04amWhen running a trial or a race,
Be sure to wear your game face,
Though your legs may be slow, 
Don't let your rivals know,
Just suck it up and maintain a high pace.
Graham K. BusheMay 12 2021, 11:16amNow the racing has been very lean,
So we chased Strava King or a Queen.
But the fun will begin
When the races are in.
With all of us getting quite keen.
Graham K. BusheMay 12 2021, 1:44pmAh Brendan, you’re losing your gift,
As the poets, are failing to shift.
For the hills they do cry,
And their pens have run dry,
A prize might just give them a lift.
Graham K. BusheMay 12 2021, 1:45pmThere was a young man from Kilmac,
Who thought he’d post here for the craic.
My gumption I’ve found,
For attemptin’ The Round.
And bring the old Dot-Watchin’ back
g ;)
Brian KitsonMay 12 2021, 3:02pmThere was a trailrunner named Brian,
Who rushed when writing a rhyme,
When a limerick was demanded,
He wrote as commanded,
And his ending was un-rhyming and basically too long.
Brendan LawlorMay 12 2021, 3:13pmKitson's entry was fairly well started,
But tis a Limerick thats only half crafted,
He'd want to beware,
Or at least have a care,
Cos the experts will soon have him shafted
Brendan LawlorMay 13 2021, 7:14amWell done to all our bards! Until next year, when hopefully we’ll be out of lockdown !
Justin ReaMay 14 2021, 12:25pmI'm sorry I missed this event.
More time on the rhyme I could've spent.
But we decided to go running,
Unlike Brendan The Cunning,
Up Sorrell Hill in the sun, we all went.
Brian FureyMay 14 2021, 1:02pmBrendan to call yourself a bards quite worrying ;)
Not to mention the disappearance of doyler and placey - quite alarming
I suggest ye read up
on some proper prose and some books
And come back with some better efforts next year yest' morning
