Oh how cool! lemme try

Mrs Spider (as per EC) here I come
this time I'm in FF's home
I like the sight
of her flashlight
but soon or later I'll be gone!

One day I
discovered my
room was filled
with guest so chilled
a spider fly

I had it wrapped
all the way trapped
so I can try
to drift away
and so I finally napped

They’re great, but not technically limericks.

The first, second and fifth lines in a limerick rhyme and generally have 8-9 syllables, while the third and fourth rhyme and generally have 5-6 syllables. This structure gives a limerick it’s fun rhythm.

Someone I know had trouble in bed,
She decided to chase a spider instead,
She cried and she wailed,
It all got derailed,
And now it’s a limerick thread!

This is my favorite — it was written by a seven-year-old girl.

There was a young lady from Leeds
Who was constantly doing good deeds
She said to her mother
As she bit her young brother
“I’ll bind up the wound if it bleeds!”

Love it!
Can’t believe a seven year old did this! Lil genius!

And some other women always so kind
Ready to help a friend in a bind
Gave up their sleep
With the friend they did weep
And the spider forgotten to find.

And somewhere there’s a sad spider mister
Or perhaps one who’s missing a sister
She was gone for a few
And was squashed by a shoe
Her family will forever miss her

I wonder what FF will say,
When she sees how her thread went astray,
She stayed up all night,
With a spidery fight,
And now she is sleeping all day.

A spider is a cute little creature,
I know a book where it’s a main feature,
Salutations it said,
And then spun a web,
It became a friend as well as a teacher!

Extra credit if u know what I’m talking about;)

I was asleep, but definitely would have answered Charlottes Web!

I’m sure you were sleeping when you slept,
You’ve also been weeping when you wept,
You were born can I guess,
On your birthday no less,
And you’ve always been sweeping when you swept!

My mom wrote this one in while in school:

I have a brother named Bruce
Whose trunks are always loose
When he dives off the board
It loosens the cord
And he's left trailing his caboose

Again, I've missed much of the fun
For three pages of this thread are done
I know it's my fault
Which to my wound adds salt
Next time, I should check before one Smile

I was sure that you stayed far away,
From those who killed spiders today,
The roach on your pic,
And his sandwich so thick,
Just proves that you like when they stay.
