Our Limericks

By Echo:

-

There was a young girl from Wan Chai

who never ceased to sigh.

She murmured, 'So sad!'

and grumbled, 'Too bad!'

That difficult young girl from Wan Chai.

-

There was an old man from Mongkok

who had to work around the clock.

He wore torn jeans

and collected old tins

That lonely old man from Mongkok.

-

By Carolyn and Olivia:

-

There was an old snake from Tsing Yi

that claimed it had been to the sea.

It faintly slithered

and dizzily quivered.

That sickly old snake from Tsing Yi.

-

There was a stray cat from Mei Foo

who always slept next to the loo.

It lost its smell

and could not tell.

That stinky stray cat from Mei Foo.

-

There was a caged bird from Kowloon

who wished to fly like a balloon.

He dreamed of the sea

and longed to be free.

That pathetic caged bird from Kowloon.

-

There was a young boy from Shek O

who always drove his own limo.

He had no license

and got no patience.

That reckless young boy of Shek O.
