And another:

There was a young bunny from Popham
Who longed to take dear Kate shopping
The sea was too wide
So he took an airoplane ride
Now going shopping that bunny is hopping.

Being 'friendless' was Jerry's disclaimer,
Finding George only made his life lamer,
Along came Elaine,
Who whined and complained,
But voila! He met Cosmo Kramer!!!!

A young girl was lost in the wild
with beasties, and things most reviled.
She tried and she failed
to get out, then scaled
a cliff, saw the way, and she smiled.

There once was a bunny whose ears,
were so short that it moved her to tears.
To convince them to grow,
She hung weights on them... so.
Now her ears are the envy of peers.

I think you're all too clever the way you come up with those rhymes so fast!! Here's my effort which took 2 days to put together  Embarrassed

There was a young girl from Port Lincoln
Who blushed cos her feet were too stinkin’
She shoved them in glue
And rose petals too
Now it’s whistles that has her cheeks pinkin’

There was a young Golem whose eye,
was as loose as a the numbers in pi.
To keep it in place,
wrapped a cloth 'bout his face.
"I can't see, but how clever am I!"

There once was a mouse named dees,
So slow all his friends would tease.
He tried losing weight,
But traps seal his fate.
Mouse two always gets the cheese.

There once was a frog named Splat.
Who loved the great taste of gnat.
Hopped out of the pond,
Through field and beyond.
Still searching for one that’s fat.

There once was a monster named Fred.
Whose eyes were most horribly red.
He could not sleep sound,
From fear he’d be found,
'Till eating the kid in the bed.

Our Miss Jan thought she’d have a contest
to find out who “plotted” the best
The limericks poured out.
“That’s enough!” she did shout,
“To decide now, I’m really hard pressed!”

Steph was a girl so sweet
Who forgot to bake a school treat.
She searched for some flour
For over an hour.
Then she took the kids Skittles to eat.

Thanks Miranda  Smiley  It took me another 5 days to come up with this one:

In York lived a skinny young chicken
Who dreamed of becoming a Wiccan
She tried hexes (what a joke)
Her potions would just smoke
Now illusions are her way of trickin’

I realized (after posting) that my last limerick was lacking in problem. The desire to be a witch is not really a big enough problem to instigate action, so I tried a new one. Here it is:

There once was a wombat called Sox
Whose hole had got blocked up with rocks
He pushed and he jiggled
He poked and he wiggled
Then dug himself out like a fox.
