Chapter 5 - day 7 limerick

I wanted to make some rhymes, 
when I didn't have much time
i figured some limerick 
would be just the ticket

[LOL--shameless half rhyme, or perhaps quarter rhyme even] 


a limric is a stupid little poem with a set rhyme pattern a sing song rhythm and is usually slightly off color and/or ironic. 

[these were written top of my head very fast this whole this was done in 10-15 minutes I think. while playing with my grandson and getting him ready for bed.]


*******

there once was a cat from Manhattan
who overate mice and did fatten
his rival instead
of just laying in bed
went jogging, got hit and did flatten.

there once was a purple chemelion,
who got quite confused in his feelin’
so turned him self red, 
with a green striped head
so florescent it’d send you mind reelin’ 

there was a blue turtle from mars
who thought he might fly through the stars
in his very large shell
his socks started to smell
so he fainted and didn’t get far

there once was a three year old boy
whose grandmother he would annoy
with his pink yokai watch
and his bag full of rocks
but he failed to abolish her joy

there was a strange pink yokai watch
from which all the yokai got lost
and they flew round his head 
while he slept in his bed.
and attempted to summon Jack frost. 

there was a brown dog on the rug
who fears she would step on a slug
so she’d snivel and pout 
and refuse to go out
till she shriveled right into a bug

there was a grey roll of Duck tape
which aspired to become a grey snake
it began to unroll
in pursuit of that goal
and became one well-tangled mistake

there was a blue pokemon fish
who became discontent with it’s dish
so it jump with splash
from the dish to the trash
and obtained its most fondly held wish

a three-eyed yokai haunted me
and I squeeld and complained to get free
of the bright beam of light 
which it shone in my eyes
until I could suddenly see.
