The Friday Fling Writes Irish Limericks!
Friday Fling #223 for March 15th 2013
St. Patrick’s Day is Sunday, and one of our personal favorite formats is the Limerick, an Irish format poem of five lines in more or less 9-9-6-6-9 syllables and AABBA rhyme, usually with a punchline at the end which makes a joke or a telling point.
Any topic about Irish culture is suggested!
This week the Friday Fling fetes the Irish Limerick!
Be sure to save time to read and comment like an old sod, on your fellow Pals’ Paddy poetry. Then go find your own pot o’ gold on this St. Partick’s Day weekend!
Fickle Finger of Fate Award for March 8th
Congratulations Michelle!
Always fun to read them but I absolutely can’t write Limericks though Irish on both sides. I’ll stop back to read. Congratulations to Michelle! :love: :love: :love:
Welcome everyone to the Friday Fling’s Irish Limerickfest! Sorry I’m a bit late coming to the party, my wife and I went out for seafood and then the movie Oz, only offered in 3-D at the time we showed up. Highly recommended!
Our poetry party runs through tomorrow evening, when the Share posts. Please do pull up a shamrock and try your hand at this timeless poetry format, while exressing yourself on something Irish-ish! 😀

Hi Bob and all the CPC crew. I figured you guys would be up to something special today, so I just had to drop in. Sorry I haven’t been around much, but that should change after April 15th …
Hope you have lots o’chuckles today!
This Friday I’ll fen with the laddies
We’ll revel and toast to St. Patty
We’ll pour a big jug
And give it a chug
In Denver they’ll roll up a fatty!
A Cat’s Salad
~~
I know of a cat that eats green trolls
They tastes similar to mice and moles
Adding greens to his lunch
And he eats a whole bunch
Gulp, gulp, gone are little green lost souls

A LIMERICK LIMERICK
There’s a really funny poet named Lear
whose limericks I do love to hear;
I can’t write them much
for I don’t have the touch,
so away from the rhyming I steer.
