    I’m especially proud of ‘saliva/ Godiva’. :)

    “…Tennyson wrote in blank verse…”

    Don’t despair. I don’t recall Tennyson writing Limericks nearly as well as you do. So what if he was the official Poet Laureate all those years, doing a bunch of stuff in blank verse. As far as we’re concerned, you’re one of the best Laureate Limerick writers on GoComics. Could you maybe transpose ‘In Memorium’ into Limericks — just to show show your skills? Who knows? A Nobel Prize may await you! (—(—

    Lady Godiva set off on her mare

    She was bare, ‘cept for her long blond hair

    People were warned to not take looks

    Out their doorways and window nooks

    .

    (It was for a good cause

    Protesting unfair taxing laws)

    .

    But — Jeepers Creepers! —

    Voyeur Tom placed his peepers

    Against a knot hole in the wall

    Which he should not have done at all

    .

    His gaping mouth dripped saliva

    At the sight of naked Godiva

    But suddenly he saw no more hence

    Struck blind for his rude offense

    .

    From then on he bore the scorn

    Of the town where he was born

    People shouted out insults

    And he daily suffered the results

    .

    Peeping Tom: For him there is no weeping

    For the townsfolk are now keeping

    What before they in taxes overpaid

    Now saved due to Godiva’s nude parade

    Sol, Your effort here is almost as long as Tennyson’s (which see).

    Thanks for the extended ballad.

    Chestnuts and Buckeyes (generally considered inedible by humans)are rather larger in comparison to apples. Might they be Hazelnuts?

    The cat ‘tuna-ed’ him out.

    But if he stops, he might no longer be ostrich-sized.

    At least hold hands, you lovebirds.

    It’s embarrassing. Have an effective exit strategy before getting in the tub.
