    RyX DoH!

    How doth the busy little bee
    Flyeth hither & yon carelessly
    But beware of its sting
    It can be a painful thing
    Anaphylactic Shock lethality!


    My toes are colder than my nose

    My toes are colder than my nose
    which is running like a garden hose

    Screwtape A Shaving Butterfly

    My toes are colder than my nose
    which is running like a garden hose
    With a cold I am hot

    My toes are colder than my nose
    which is running like a garden hose
    With a cold I am hot
    Smooches honey? I think not.

    My toes are colder than my nose
    which is running like a garden hose
    With a cold I am hot
    Smooches honey? I think not.
    I have a fever; I am going to doze.

    Just some homework that's due!
    And I’ll work on it until my brain is fried

    That last limerick didn’t make sense

    That last limerick didn’t make sense
    I’d written it in the wrong tense

    That last limerick didn’t make sense
    I’d written it in the wrong tense
    And the meter was off

    That last limerick didn’t make sense
    I’d written it in the wrong tense
    And the meter was off
    But you musn't scoff

    That last limerick didn’t make sense
    I’d written it in the wrong tense
    And the meter was off
    But you musn't scoff
    Or Boris and Igor will boot you hence.

    Alternate Ending:

    That last limerick didn’t make sense
    I’d written it in the wrong tense
    And the meter was off
    But you musn't scoff
    Cause this one is probably worse than the last one in that respect.

    Sorry, I couldn’t resist. And now back to our regularly scheduled programming. Somebody start the next one...

    What is this meter of which people speak?
    It's a unit of measure, just more than 3 feet!

    (In poetry Meter is the cadence or stresses placed on different syllables.)

    although rhyming speak and feet is pretty weak
