With all of the goings on with a change in prime minister in Australia today I let my internal poet come to the surface. Couple of options for a limerick about Kevin Rudd that I came up with.
There once was a prime minister called Rudd
Who turned out to be quite a dud
He lost the ability to fool ya
So the Labor Party voted in Julia
And today they jettisoned this piece of crud
There once was a prime minister called Rudd
Who turned out to be quite a dud
Promises he failed to deliver
Made the Labor Party shiver
So today they jettisoned this piece of crud

Cricket Limericks
There was an Aussie batsman called Mr Cricket
Whose favourite memory was striding down the wicket
And hitting the ball to the boundary
Much unlike Colin Cowdry
With the fans yelling, "That's the ticket!"
There was a Pommie bowler called Flintoff
Thought he was the second coming of Darren Gough
He quite often took the prize wicket
Of a non-stroke playing Mr Cricket
By hitting just the one stump - off
Whose favourite memory was striding down the wicket
And hitting the ball to the boundary
Much unlike Colin Cowdry

Limericks
The boy's class is doing limericks at the moment. He, or his classmates, have come up with some beauties.
There once was a girl called Mary,
Whose body was incredibly hairy,
She called for a razor,
But should have used a laser,
'Coz she was as hairy as Hairy McLarey.
Ok, I changed the last line for him but it was pretty funny. When we went for a walk the other night he wanted me to make up a couple. So, off the top of my head here's what I came up with.
There was a young girl called Sinead,
Who got blown to bits by a grenade,
There was a great deal of muck,
She was eaten by a duck,
They buried the rest of her in the shade.
There was a young man called Nathan,
He was the bravest man in Bonython,
At the Great Lakes,
He wrestled with snakes,
Until one day he was swallowed by a python.
There was a young boy called Yu-Jin,
Who was really quite nasty and mean,
He'd cut up garden snails,
Mix them with neighbours' mails,
And do burn-outs in his limousine.
I'd like to share one of my favourite limericks that I heard many years ago.
There was an old lady from Kent,
Whose nose was incredibly bent,
One day they suppose,
She followed her nose,
Because nobody knows where she went.
