There was a young man from Devizes,
whose ears were two different sizes.
The first was so small
it was no use at all
but the other won hundreds of prizes.

There was a brave girl from Connecticut
Who flagged the express with her pecticut
Which her elders defined
As presence of mind
But deplorable absence of ecticut.

There was a young pupil named Kevin,
Who went to a school in south Devon.
He wasn’t too bright
So they called him “Midnight,”
And his brother was “Half-Past-Eleven.”

There was an old person of Putney,
Whose food was roast spiders and chutney,
Which he took with his tea,
Within sight of the sea,
That romantic old person of Putney

A large family in Tiru-nel-veyli
Wobbled and hobbled to feed each belly
They said “Enuf is enuf
We can’t do this stuff”
And caught slow trains to Bombay and Delhi!

More frequent the higher they rise,
their scandals and rhetorical cries—
politicians’ statistics,
misinformed, solipsistic,
corrupt practices, lies and damn lies.

John had bought an autonomous robot
to manage the toilet, job he did allot.
Robot was instructed
to bring paper for toilet;
instead of tissue, sand paper he brought.

LIMERICK ON A GERBIL
Author: Jatinder Pal Singh Broca Aug 31LIMERICK ON A GERBIL
A creature of charm is the gerbil
Its diet’s exclusively herbal;
It grazes all day
On bunches of hay
Passing gas with an elegant burble
