Let's Write Some Limericks

There once was an aardvark named Mel
Many stories about the man I can tell
In Dutch he's an "earth pig"
He's a bit of a prig
With an amazingly keen sense of smell

 

My dinner last night was quite filling

 

My dinner last night was quite filling
After several hours of grilling

 

My dinner last night was quite filling
After several hours of grilling
I noshed on some meat

 

My dinner last night was quite filling
After several hours of grilling
I noshed on some meat
Still fresh from the heat

 

My dinner last night was quite filling
After several hours of grilling
I noshed on some meat
Still fresh from the heat
Today my stomach pain is killing

 

My dinner tonite will be soup

 

My dinner tonite will be soup
I made enough for a big group

 

My dinner tonite will be soup
I made enough for a big group
But my friend bert
Doesn't want snert*


*a term for Dutch pea soup that also means snot.

 

My dinner tonite will be soup
I made enough for a big group
But my friend Bert
Doesn't want snert*
hij houdt van wafels en siroop

Hope that's close @richgem

 

My Dutch is not very good.

 

Nice!

 

Points for the rhyme. But i had to check that one pending review by an actual dutch speaker. But google says that siroop is medicinal, ex. Cough syrup. Stroop is the syrup you put on food to make it zoet en lekker (sweet and tasty).

 

I never said Bert had good taste, or sense for that matter.

 

I'm just glad someone else finished that one.

My mind was going in a completely different direction with snot pea soup and a digestive activity that rhymes with soup and group (and why Bert didn't want any).

 

My Dutch is not very good.
It’s hard to be understood

 

An excellent point.

 

My Dutch is not very good.
It’s hard to be understood
Ik ben een beetje crazy
Mijn spreken is te lazy

 

My Dutch is not very good.
It’s hard to be understood
Ik ben een beetje crazy
Mijn spreken is te lazy
And I drink more Jenever than I should.

 

There once was a penguin in Aruba.
