There once was a man from Nantucket,
who found a big hole in his bucket.
He sealed it with clay,
at the start of each day.
At year’s end, he finally said…" 'uck it!"

(what? You really didn’t think I would keep a Nantucket Limerick totally clean…did you?)

There once was a rabbit named Fred,
Whom an evil, orange cat left for dead.
But our Fred gots revenge,
On a zombified binge,
And Orange Cat's now brainless, instead.

There was a lady who worked night and day.
She really had no time for play.
So she went to the mall,
Said, "I'll take one of all!"
And sent the bill to her hubby to pay.

There once was a giant named Mouse,
Who could simply not fit in his house.
So he took off the walls,
and dismantled the halls.
Now there's room for himself and his spouse.

There once was a larvae voracious,
who discovered his suit wasn't spacious.
"To eat more, I must grow."
he went "instar"... just so.
Now more aphids he eats... how audacious.

Red was a girl from the hood,
Where a wolf was up to no good.
Mistook Wolf for her Granny,
Till it nipped at her fanny,
And she ran away fast as she could.

There once was a young man named Dennis,
who wanted to “vay-kay”  in Venice.
He entered a tourney,
to pay for his journey,
and that’s how he learned to play tennis.

There once was a young girl named Ann
Who gagged on her first bite of bran
Added some berries
Then Ben & Jerry’s
But gave up and fed it to Gran

In the bottom of the seventh inning,
the coach said, “We’ve no chance of winning.”
We worked as a team
and reached for the dream.
Now, holding the trophy, we’re grinning!

Dear Hardt spent his time writing limericks
Instead of those marketing gimmicks.
His boss asked him the time,
Poor Hardt answered in rhyme,
Now he's writing those gimmicks in limericks.

A writer who procrastinated
Found her creativity faded.
Though she hadn't the time
She played with a rhyme,
With stories she's now inundated.

There once was a fellow named Brad.
He found out, he would be a dad.
He tried to duck out,
‘cause his mind filled with doubt.
‘til that fateful day, then he was glad!

A silly young bear cub went fishin’,
for dinner, was what he was wishin’.
When hookin’ the worm
it started to squirm.
So he ate all the worms. They were swishin’.

There once was a painter named Ferd,
Who was fired by Sheridan Herd.
So Ferd opened his own shop,
and came out quite tip-top.
Now Boss Heard works for him! How absurd.

Here's my try:

There was a young girl from Hong Kong
who's sums were invariably wrong
Her unfortunate teacher
Was unable to reach her
Until she learnt all her sums in a song.
