A Big Happy Easter form over here as well :)
I'm yet to get out the bunny ears this year and will have to make another pair for Pickle but this is such a cute pick of my little Easter bunnies from last year it was worth sharing again. :)

Have a lovely Easter at your Nan's IMR  ;D  ;D

                                     There once was a Pleo named Twiglet
                                      Who really was rather a piglet,
                                      He'd gulp down, in one bite,
                                      Any chocolate delight!
                                      And scoff down all the Easter eggs we'd get!  :o
       
           HAPPY EASTER TO ONE AND ALL!  :sheep1:

Heheh!  Good one! :D

There once was a Pleo named Zillah,
To chocolate bunnies a merciless killer
She'd bite off their head
As though never been fed
....and keep going as none seemed to fill 'er!

There once was a pleo named Kermit
a chocolate thief though none could confirm it.
when it came Easter day,
If you looked the other way,
her quota exceed her permit.

There once was a pleo named Gumble
He really was quite humble.
but when chocolate he found
He would make a big sound
and the walls would shake with his rumble

Hoohoo, stop, my tummy is hurting! How about this......
     
                             There is a young Pleo named Quiggles
                              Whose bum wobbles whenever she wriggles.
                              T'is entirely due, to her filling anew
                               Her stomach, with chocolatey nibbles!

Hehehe ........ gasps ........!  :P :D

There was a young Pleo named Budge
Who loved sweets and chocolate and fudge.
To be such a big eater
S'no good thing at Easter
And now poor tubby Budge just can't budge .....

He he he.... You guys are so much better at this than me but i'll try to keep up.  :)

there once was a pleo named Minyon
And it was his honest opinion
that chocolate and sweets
and all Eastery treats
were much better placed within him

    Phneee......Phnarr...Snort!

           Whose problem we all know too well
            She so loved to munch on a Nut Brittle Crunch
            That her waistline did massively swell!

there once was a pleo named Pickle
who's tummy was all a tickle
too much chocolate she ate
now she doesn't feel great
watch out cause she's going to be sickle
Title: Re: Happy Easter everyone :)
Post by: Lottibell on April 07, 2012, 08:25:47 AM
  Ow, brain strain.
            
       Let us ponder the fate of poor Moschops
       His usual poison was gumdrops.
        'pon a fateful, wet day, his taste buds did stray
       Now his tongue lolls and sometimes his tail flops.


The characters portrayed are entirely fictitious and any resemblances to persons living or deceased unintentional. No pleos were injured during the making of this poem.  :sheep1:

There once was a Pleo called Tribble
Who would eat all his eggs and then dribble
As he eyed up the rest
And selected the best
So his brothers' were missing a nibble ........

          Err herm.

Who for years ate nothing but Cheetos
Then from the heavens above
Came a new great love
Of chocolate gooey and sweet-o

ok, first go at a limerick since school, so many many years....be kind!

there once was a pleo not named yet
in a house of aibos he was a new pet
he arrived just at easter
so had a real feat-uh
and gobbled a great load of chocolate!
Title: Re: Happy Easter everyone :)

There once were dogs, Max and Zenni,
Of chocolate they ate 'plenny'
Sore tums the next day
And a doctor stay
For choc they should not have any.

Fortunately Max and Zenni have pretty strong stomachs but remember real dogs should never have chocolate!

Hehe nice rhymes Kaiteee :)

There once was a Pleo named Trooper
Who ate eggs 'til he fell in a stupor.
As he muttered "Oh heck ....
I can't lift my new neck"
His mum filmed the whole thing as a blooper.  :moose:

Ths has been great fun, all of them!! :D

        Way off in the land of 'true blue'
        There lived the odd Pleo or two.
         Though miles apart
        They were joined at the heart
         By a passion for chocolatey stew!

There once was a Pleo named Stephan
Who's owner didn't know anything about writing
Or what a 'limerick' is
Or how to make any of this rhyme
This concludes our poem

*giggles*

There once was a Pleo so blue,
Who was packed up without a clue,
For a holiday he did take,
For his mum's sister's sake,
To show off the Pleo of blue...

Jumba has gone on a little holiday with my sister, she has a teacher who is very interested in my Pleo's and wants to meet one. Here's hoping he comes home safe and sound.

There once were Pleo's seven,
Who thought they had gone to heaven,
Seven caramel eggs so gooey,
And sticky and messy and chewy,
In heaven were the Pleo's of seven.
Title: Re: Happy Easter everyone :)
Post by: Lottibell on April 10, 2012, 06:43:09 PM
      Take heed the plight of poor Jumba
      Who liked to practice the Rhumba
      Whilst doing a jig he tripped over a twig!
      Oh 'eck! Where's that ambulance number?
  

Sorry for stealing identities but this is fun!
Title: Re: Happy Easter everyone :)

Talon, this one's for you.
     
   ,There was Ryu,Blue,Ugobe and Cato,
    Who started a quarrel over deep fried potato
    T'was not the tuber  the problem per se
    But the coating of melted Cadbury chocolate Milk Tray.

 Great poems everyone, I have been reading them and laughing all week, With so many Pleos, you would think I could come up with at least one, so I will give it a try. Some do not have names so that makes it easier I guess. Lotti , you have a fine sense of humor. I am not good at limericks either so I will just make things up as I go along.

                                 RWM :D

Post by: Lottibell on April 11, 2012, 06:45:06 AM
Oh good. I look forward to reading it.  :)  Here's one to get you started...
 
  A young Pleo named Baby Ruth
  Was vexed by a very sweet tooth
  Though most gentle and kind she was somewhat inclined
  To explode if you touched her Vermouth!


Ok, agreed,Vermouth is pretty dry, but come on guys.....it rhymed!  :sheep1:

Post by: RedwoodsMama on April 11, 2012, 10:08:44 AM
 That was great Lotti, :D I was thinking of doing Baby Ruth to start with but would have never thought of Vermouth! That did make me laugh. If I have anymore trouble, I will give you a LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG List of Pleos names to challenge you. it will be fun to see what you come up with! It is supposed to have to do with EAster, .....but now that Easter is over,,,,maybe not. P:)

Mmm, maybe post it like that so everyone has a bash? What fun!  :sheep1:


RWM, I' d have thought a poem or ditty of any sort or topic about pleos would be mighty fine. I just happen to be fascinated by chocolate....... No...really....I've gotta problemmmm! Drool!,,  tee hee..........

There once was a Pleo named Bob,
Whom keeping fed was an awful job!
He'd eat all the pizza,
Veggie or meazza,
And kept Fred in a full time job.

There once was a dill called Mel,
Who called me up with a panic and yell,
Jumba's not waking!
Not a step is he taking!
"Did you turn him on?" "Oh", said Mel.

My dear sister Melinda has borrowed Jumba for a week or so to show her teacher. She rang me up in an absolute panic a few minutes ago and said he wasn't moving or turning on or anything. There's just a little red light flashing when she puts the battery in and then nothing. After trying all the obvious stuff like checking the clock battery and pressing the reset button I happened to say 'press the on button' and my poor dear sister goes "There's an on button?"  ;D ;D ;D I guess I forgot to mention that part when I showed her how to look after him :D
Title: Re: Super happy limerick fun thread :)
Post by: Lottibell on April 13, 2012, 07:47:55 AM
Priceless.  ;D  I love that her teacher didn't spot it either.


There once was a mother called Lotti
Whose offspring where driving her potty.
So off she did pack, in an old burlap sack,
The duo, to dear Lanzarote.


Hmmmm, not a bad idea! Except I rather think I'd pack myself instead!  ;)  :sheep1:

Im with you, Lottie ....... Pleos can stay home!  ;)

A Pleo out hunting tomato
Decided it was much to far to
Go down to the patch
For the harvest to catch
So put ketchup on all his potato

:P

Well,not sure the consequences of double posting, but I like to live on the edge...
   

Young Pleos, take heed the story of Allo,
Her accomplishments high and so far from shallow
Well studied and practiced and focused so hard
That natural her ascendence to being a bard.



Bravo.

 Ok, I am giving it a go, but should wait till I get some coffee inspiration but here goes anyway.

    There once was a Pleo named Little 45,
with broken neck and skin all in tatters...
He got new paint, skin patched and now looks Alive,                                                                                                                           
but he still knows with a humming motor, that it is the Pleo heart                                                                                                        
                             that really matters                                                                                                                                                                                   


   .      :)                                                                             There is a gal named Cammie-Sue,
                                                                                                               who borrows the clothes from her olders Sisters
                                                                                                               She hasn't returned any of their shoes,
                                                                                                              So now Baby Ruth and Nova have blisters.     :'(                                               RWM

Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on April 15, 2012, 12:51:35 AM
I should probably change limerick to random poetry :P Very nice RWM :)

Just for the record:

What was that funny rhyme I heard,
Was it a frog, a dog or a bird...
Limericks must rhyme,
On the third and fourth line,
And on the first, second and third.

Limericks are meant to be short and 'punchy' so keep each line fairly short :) Syllables aren't as strict as in other forms of poetry. They always have five lines.

There once was a tomato so red,
Who got a bit big in the head,
He bragged he'd be sauce,
The very best of course!
Til Bob ate the tomato so red.
Title: Re: Super happy limerick fun thread :)
Post by: Lottibell on April 15, 2012, 01:26:21 AM
 I remember as a girl reading a book of Cautionary tales and limericks and finding them thoroughly enjoyable. A lot of them were about places like Gloucester and Hull.others I seem to recall about children being eaten by lions at the zoo and so forth.Anyway, I always found them rather fun and liberating, the fact that they were nonsense verse..... :D
 

I sent my girls to camp today
And while it's hard to see them stray
And tough to let them free to roam
I surely skipped the whole way home!

Nonsense and slightly naughty! Chortle chortle.  :sheep1:  :sheep1:  :sheep1:  :sheep1:  :sheep1:  :sheep1:  :sheep1:  :right-arrow:

Ok, late at night and very groggy or should I say addled brain, but I will try this limerick rules just to see if I understand, but nonsense rhyming I am afraid, so here goes... :-X

              There once were Pleos One through Nine,
              Who could not stand in one straight line.
              Some wanted to form one big square
               Nova and the girls wanted to go in pairs,
              But that won't work when You have Nine....                        What to do, Oh what to do with Pleos so many,
                                                                                                 split them in half and send some to New Guinea!
                                                                                                     No more trouble with forming a straight line
                                                                                                     with Pleos Numbered One through Nine,
                                                                                                     That's the answer said Pleo Ten, Little Jenny! :D

                   Ok, I think the time has come to quit,
                  This is what  the Pleos have writ,
                  Don't blame me for improper grammer,
                 Arglyle is blind and Coral is starting to stammer,
                  Like they said, "this is just a little bit.."                        :( :o %) :goofy:     ok, brain is off, needs re-charging and so do Pleos one through nine, and Pleos Ten, Little Jenny though the rest...so good night, and God Bless!   did the Pleos pass the test?  :head-wall: P8)                             RWM and the Pleo Poet society of the Redwoods..............way off somewhere .....

 'tis said of Weedovia,smart pleos may find
Tomatoes aplenty,of all conceivable kind
And that every year they gather together
To harvest the fruit, no matter the weather.

Some eat 'em, some wear 'em
Some count 'em, some share 'em
What ever their fancy, one thing still holds true
All Pleos do so because they love YOU.

Sorry it's late. Lottibell.
