~*~ did I do it right??

Yes and no, AABBA is correct, the meter isn't spot on. If you go back a bit in this thread, You'll find somethin I wrote about the rules for limericks.
But with a little effort, and forgive me for stealing your words:

When you finally do find your place
Show some real class and also some grace
Never tell any lies
And don't overly sigh
And remember to wash your sweet face


The rules for the rhyme do not matter:
Don't use them to severly batter
A tryer at writing
Who's cleverly delighting
With his nonsensical chatter!


Perhaps you are wondering why
I did not let this question go by
I think I had the right
was just being polite
cause when a lady asks one should reply
My daughter, who should be in bed by now, but is stalling as long as she can.
She has given me many enjoyable hours with her wonderful stories
I never eat much and don't work out, so I'm not very big. There is room enough for me.
I've never been to that part of the world, so it sounds great.
I can think of a few fanatics on this thread and EoL that would make great company.


Where would we end up in SA?
Steam and simmer, boil and bubble
Fill my cauldron up with trouble
Brew me some to make them fart
Or maybe to stop their heart

Tail of lizard, spiderbrain
Seven drops of winter rain
A drink to let them fall in love
or to fall from high above

Black cat's whiskers, wings of bats
Add the hair of two black rats
Cause their minds to overload
Or become a slimy toad

Scale of dragon, leeches gut
Five small scoops of sulfer mud
Make them sick or even worse
strike them with a deadly curse

Hide yourself and shake with fear
Because the wicked witch is here...

hehehehehe.....
I like, what that fox says, funny, and not bad music either.
Grey all over here, lots of clouds, come and get them! They come with an icy cold wind though....

Anyone who has some nice warm sunshine for me?
The voices of my children, playing in tje livingroom

There once was a Golden Baboon
Who decided to visit the moon
But try as he might
He couldn't get a flight
And returned home feeling like a buffoon.

Too bad I'm sitting here alone, because the infection would have spread, you've made me smile
Nope, don't like potato stuff. I'll have half a ton of your spiciest chili please.

and the current powers that be, inclusive of religious organizations, tell us there is no such thing as ghosts, UFO's, life on other planets, only one God, there is a heaven and hell, and that our votes actually count for something.. are you telling me you have proof that such gods did not exist? pfffttt! my friend.. pffftttt! pfffttt!

What is the favorite meal of the day?
I never said there is any proof of non-existence. I said there is no evidence that support they did exist. I don't believe in any god, nor in Atlantis, Andromeda or the cyclope. And yes, I believe there is proof. But this forum is hardly the place for a discussion about religion. I respect any persons believes, whhether I share them or not. And aliens?I do believe the earth is not the only place with life.

my favorite meal is the one I eat late at night, when the kids sleep and all is quiet.

where would you sleep if you had more guests than.beds?

Because not believing is boring.. and Atlantis did exist.. just because there weren't any Kodak moments 11,000 years ago doesn't mean that people from that time who swore it was there are mistaken..

Why does a hotdog at the ballpark taste better than at home?

They also swore the earth was flat, Poseidon, Zeus and Hera existed and that Andromeda could turn any man into stone just by looking at her. The stories of Atlantis were recorded from 9000 year old hearsay. Try passing down a story down a line of ten people and compare the original with the endresult. Then think of what 9000 years, at least 1800 generations of passing down a story would do with it. And do we really know how much of what Plato wrote was fiction?

That hotdog tastes better, because you're enjoying yourself anyway.

Why would Atlantis be true, and the gods just a myth? The stories come from the same sources.
The cow sandwich sounds fine, but that sauce makes my arse burn when I fart

Where is Atlantis?

Okay, you all are faster than me, but:
Nowhere. There is no scientific evidence, Atlantis ever existed. Historic sources, Plato among them, mentioned that it had existed some 9000 years ago (11.000 counting from now) beyond the Columns of Herakles. That places it outside of the mediterranian and somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean (hence its name). There is simply nothing there, neither archeologically nor geologically, to support that. What did happen around that time, was the end of the iceage. The massive meltdown of the landice on the northern hemisphere caused the sealevels to rise some 120 meters over just a couple of generations. What now is the North Sea was dry, inhabited land before that. Maybe that is the source of the myth.


And I don't know who the killer was.

Why do people believe in myths?
Burrrp! Just did, wee bit too sweet for me though, it doesn't give me the gas I need for a good firebreath
When the cockroach girl married the mouse
The owl said he would take their vows
When her groom said: "I do"
The owl said: "me too"
And he promptly devoured her spouse.
There are none. I write when the urge arises, and that can happen anytime.

What do you eat, when you get hungry at night?
A wasp once landed on my nose and asked me: "Would it sting,
If would simply settle here and watched you do your thing?"
I told him that would not be safe, because my lovely wife
Would want to kiss me near that spot, endangering his life
He told me that he would not move, because he loved the place
And if that lady came too close, he'd stick it in her face
Now I love every animal, no matter, big or small,
But threatening to hurt my wife, I don't accept at all
I hooked my finger hind my thumb, and shot him off my nose,
His lifeless body flew away and landed on a rose
And so this story ends for him, because he failed to see
That the nose of one about to kiss is not the place to be.

my question would be.. should comments be made mandatory? Arbitrary scoring is for the birds..

In my honest opinion, not if you score a 4 or a 5. But If you score lower, I think comments should be mandatory, because you obviously don't like the story or poem, and I think the author has a right to know why, to be able to improve his/her work.

How did you find stories space?
Or at least, so he thinks.

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall
