Travelling to England from Rome
She booked a holiday home
In a woodland chalet
She practised her ballet
And learned to pronounce the word 'some'

Sometimes when writing a song
It's like turning the radio on
With rhyme after rhyme
In double quick time
New music is made before long

Hello Jack,

Here is a limerick in response to your challenge

At his letter the writer surmised
She in France might be surprised
Through the language barrier
By electronic carrier
At the reception end localized

Hello Jack

I was not trying to be unkind.

I read the first post in this thread and as I started to read it, it seemed like a rhyming couplet but it was not.

And it made me laugh!

I now know that it was not intended as a rhyming couplet but it just sort of, well, humourously jarred that it wasn't as if it were the unexpected punchline of a joke.

So I wrote a poem that bumped strangely as an attempt at humour.

Please note how it bumped at the word 'peculiar'.

The thread is for jokes.

It just seemed funny to me.

The rhyming couplet in the first post in this thread
doesn't rhyme but goes peculiar instead
I know this humour may not please most
But at least there's rhyming in this post

Thank you.

William
