2014 Limerick Contest

Here they are in all their glory! Look on the sidebar for where you can vote for your favorite!!

#1 
I like breakfast! My daily treat!
Pancakes, Waffles all good to eat
No matter the meal
There is not a deal
That my breakfast food cannot beat!

#2
For Spring Break I left behind snow
And went to Disney - Orlando!
I had lots of fun
We played in the sun
When we got back we got rain though.

#3
No! I found a mouse
Ugh, it's in my house
I got some bait
Now I just wait
My kitchen I must douse

#4
The sun shining down on my face
Through the leaves, makes a pattern of lace
My drowsy eyes close
As a wind softly blows.
I never want to leave this place.

#5
A snowy winter is so fine
But we like to see the sun shine
Spring is now coming
The birds are humming
It brings a tingle to my spine

#6
The flowers are not blooming yet
It's cold outside, raining and wet
Degrees thirty-two
That's winter! It's true!
No sunshine tomorrow, I bet ...

#7
I packed my bags and my suitcase,
Off to the airport at a frantic pace
I can't be late
The plane won't wait
I am out for another "Amazing Race"

#8
Family night is full of food
And chat & laughter to set the mood!
Whether family or friend
We all just blend
And depart knowing all was good!

#9
I go to Grandma's for dinner
I always feel like a winner
The food is great
I'm never late
Goodbye to becoming thinner!

#10
A headache is causing me pain
Whatever I do it won't wane
I'm not gonna lie
I think I might die
Don't want this to happen again

#1
How can I get over the creek
Shallow at first then its deep
Through the mud
And other crud
Oh yeah... in a new jeep     -David Carlson

 #2
When the crazy becomes a monsoon
As wont at every full moon
Get those younguns in line
What? haven't the time?
It's simple, just get a baboon!    (Dedicated to Maggie)   -Emilly Savage

#3
The pollen floats in on a breeze
It makes my nose run and then sneeze
My throat's in such pain
That I want to complain
Someone give me some medicine, Please!     -Maggie Walkup

#4
To order online is just great.
You click and you pay, then you wait
You pay less for more,
It comes to your door!
There's nothing about it to hate.     -Rachael Carlson
