    There are a few that like to join in
    like Earnest (when he's not debunking "sin")
    and Marcofratelli
    who really likes jelly
    and Ghost after he's had enough gin.

    last few days, i missed earnest
    in limerick words he is also best
    discussing seriously
    he noticed us merely
    he's expected to take this limericks test

    It's time to get back to this thread
    to keep limericks fresh in my head
    I like the rhyming
    the method and timing
    It reminds me that I'm not dead.

    I've missed our "chance" meetings here, Earnest.
    They're as healing as the finest internist.
    Glad you feel alive
    here you will thrive
    and enjoy life with a fresh, anew zest. hmm

    Laura where have you been?
    It's ages since you were seen
    Flitting through with HP fame
    Newbies don't know your name
    And we miss you in the team.

    I hate to say it Pearldiver,
    I feel like a shipwreck survivor.
    Life's dealt me some poop
    A bit worse than the croup
    I'll fix it with my handy screwdriver.

    (I miss you, too)

    The sculptures of Giacometti,

    Hey Laura let me know what you need
    Please don't lie there and bleed
    Maybe if you email me a letter
    I might be able to help you feel better
    Surely there's nothing to make you conceed.

      Hi Earnest - I'm glad you're still here.
      I'm rarer than ever, I fear.
      It's finding the time
      to indulge in a rhyme
      between working and women and beer!

    Earnest, as much as I love you, my friend
    there’s magic out there we can't comprehend
    —all I can say is religion’s a curse
    they’ll steal all your money and then take your purse—
    But good still wins out in the end  wink

    There once was a Hubber named "Frog"
    And I'll tell you frog worked like a dog
    to get all those hubs in
    and go for the win
    And now we're left standing agog!


    Happy Birthday Frogdropping!!

    ETA: I have made a mistake thinking that frog won the Hub contest, when it was wordscribe! I'm SORRY!! Frog posted the congratulatory thread! But the rhyme doesn't work with scribe! sad

    I'll think up another. And I'll dedicate this for Frog's B-day.

    The Hub had a contest of words
    And many attempted to get themselves heard
    But out of the Tribe
    The best was the Scribe
    And the win was truly deserved!

    CONGRATULATIONS WORDSCRIBE!!!

    I was sitting around on my keester
    when out of the blue
    a thought about you
    made we want to cook a big feast  or

    When I got the ham in the oven
    I got a call from the rest of my coven
    don't sit home and bitch
    or we can't call you witch
    so I got up and gave them some lov'n!

    Now you may think that this is real strange
    some people have called me deranged
    but if what's in the oven's
    not as good as my coven's
    I reserve every right to the exchange

    everywhere in the threads I was scorned
    I was just driven out
    with a whip and a shout
    and here I sit all alone and forlorned!

    All faithful hubbers listen as I warn
    if you think in the threads you'll get porn
    don't strip or be bare
    of the teasers beware
    or you'll end up like me, all alorn!

    Never dreaming my hub friends would ban me

    This thread is anew today,
    I know you'd want it that way.
    I just wish we were giggling,
    our bellies were jiggling,
    But I don't have my friend to play.

    I hate that I have to say bye,

      a heart felt limerick...if ever there was one! And a sad one. What a greater honor then this...there could not be...for the ones that you used to joke around with on a limerick or two...to remember you by the laughter and wit you brang to them.

        Thanks so much for saying that!  I just have the fondest memories of him here... I just want to hang out here all day, really.  When I couldn't sleep, I'd just come here and laugh my ass off all night long.  Man, it was the best kind of therapy in the world.  I would do anything to have him pop in here just one last time.

    Earnest I think that you'll find
    Tis best to remember this rhyme;
    When you're dead and departed
    You'll find that you've started
    At the end of a very long line.


    Very apt I think smile Fun times, made me laugh plenty, ever the gentleman, greatly missed by so many.
