Line by Line Limericks - DejaBoo - 16-03-2024

The object is to write a limerick together. Each poster writes only ONE line, until the fifth line is reached, then a poster starts a new one. 
Probably best to re-post the previous line(s) of the current limerick before your own line, so it all makes sense in context.  


As we know, Limericks have an AABBA rhyme scheme with 3 anapests for A lines and 2 in the B's.  
Just a ground rule: don't make the first line too hard to rhyme, since we have to find two rhymes for it.
  

Let's start with:
 
There once was a Forum of Games


RE: Line by Line Limericks - NNAHere - 16-03-2024

There once was a Forum of Games,
Which attracted bould guys and bould dames.

NNA raised the bar

NNA raised the bar
When he said to Dejarr

New limerick:

There once was a game of Sheep...


RE: Line by Line Limericks - NNAHere - 30-03-2024

There once was a game of Sheep
Which had glamour and glitz and mystique


RE: Line by Line Limericks - jp liz v1 - 02-04-2024

There once was a game of Sheep
Which had glamour and glitz and mystique
Some answers were funny with scoring aces


RE: Line by Line Limericks - NNAHere - 02-04-2024

There once was a game of Sheep
Which had glamour and glitz and mystique
Some answers were funny with scoring aces
While others you'd question their logical basis


RE: Line by Line Limericks - jp liz v1 - 06-04-2024

There once was a game of Sheep
Which had glamour and glitz and mystique
Some answers were funny with scoring aces
While others you'd question their logical basis
When some lose we are sad so we weep

We still await the Blind Date game
And while we wait we go insane.
In anticipation we shaved
And expressed thoughts depraved

The questions submitted oh the shame

There once was a game of music walrus


RE: Line by Line Limericks - NNAHere - 12-04-2024

Designed to delight, to inspire, to enthrall us

You win it- they'll call you (Don't callrus).

RE: Line by Line Limericks - DejaBoo - 27-04-2024

ok Liz..... here we go:


NNA is a maths wiz and more


RE: Line by Line Limericks - NNAHere - 27-04-2024

NNA is a maths wiz and more
And to many that makes me a bore
But Deja, I'm told
Enjoys being bold
'Cos being angelic's a chore.

OK, I sort of spoiled it so restarting:

But manages to avoid being a bore


RE: Line by Line Limericks - NNAHere - 27-04-2024

But manages to avoid being a bore
While Declan (it's said)

But manages to avoid being a bore
While Declan (it's said)
Keeps it all inside his head

So he never reveals his top score.

So she opened 'Chain games'

And saw the same names

So she opened Chain Games
And saw the same names
So she set up the game and then fled.


RE: Line by Line Limericks - NNAHere - 04-05-2024

Said Deja "It's time that we had a good bash."
So she made a new game with pizzazz and with dash.
We flocked to her thread and after we read it.
We thought "That's quite cool, she deserves all our credit."
Day by day, though, the crew disappeared fairly quickly
And the site by degrees becomes ever more sickly.
So it seems - sad to say- that the site's doomed to crash.
Credit's grand- if you're God- but for all others cash!


RE: Line by Line Limericks - NNAHere - 10-05-2024

To be sung to the tune of 'The Rose of Tralee'

The forum of games is a website declining
The members it seems have all gone back to Boards.
Ghostly threads, lacking posts are a way of defining
That it's ended, it's time that we fall on our swords.

It was fun while it lasted, a cool place to chill
But now it's adrift, of members bereft.
So for me it's now time that I head for the hill
Say 'Farewell! It's been good but it's time that I left'.

Thanks all while it lasted- participants, administrators and development crew. I am logging off now. I can't actually delete my account so perhaps will periodically check in to see if there's anything doing. So, until the next time (if there is a next time), 'Au revoir!'

Others need to come play and cheer
