Description
A book full of Limericks X-rated
Some classics and some newly created
You’ll find some lewd ones
Some crude and some rude ones
And the obscene ones can’t be over-rated!
From the demented mind of best-selling humorist and Award-winning writer Bob Shelley.
This book is for everyone who has been seduced by the lovable limerick!
A bear taking a dump asked a rabbit
"Does shit stick to your fur as a habit?"
"Of course not," said the hare,
"It's really quite rare!"
So the bear wiped his ass with the rabbit.
A dottering old man named Peter
Went poking around his gas heater
Struck a match for some light;
And blew clear out of sight
And, as everyone who knows anything about limericks can tell you, he also ruined the meter.
The lass I brought home was a prize,
With an alluring set of blue eyes,
Her breasts, so well kept,
Were what I’d expect,
But her penis was quite a surprise.
I’ve loved reading limericks and I’ve loved writing limericks all my life. And as I grew up the limericks grew up too.
I was told when I first went to sea,
You must always spit to the Lee.
And later I found,
As we sailed down the sound,
The rule also applies when you pee!
Back in the days before the internet, computers, tablets, smart phones, television and radio, people had to create their own entertainment. They would gather in neighbor’s homes and pubs to play cards, sing along to a piano, tell funny or scary stories or recite poetry. Growing out of this need to entertain one another, came some of our best literature, jokes, stories, songs and an odd form of poetry called the Limerick, most likely shared with the world by the Irish Diaspora and believed to have had its origin in the county of Limerick in Ireland. This book reveals the surprising history of the limerick with origins in the 11th century, written by everyone from Shakespeare to Ogden Nash and Salmon Rushdie!, And they were the basis, you'll be surprised to discover, of Mother Goose Rhymes:
Mary had a little sheep,
And with this sheep, she went to sleep,
The sheep turned out,
To be a ram,
And Mary had a little lamb!
There's a lot of limericks in this book and something to please everyone. Not everylimerick here is risque or X-rated, because there are some very clever, very funny clean ones that make up in wit what they may lack in obscenity.
Read on--and share freely with others!
