There was a girl who loved buns
Devouring them and her life was fun
Her mom served cake instead
Which drove the girl very mad
She would rather go out and soak up the sun.
** This is my first attempt on limerick. It gives me the thrill in writing this one though it isn't up to the standard of limericks I have read before. I love the humour I find in them. I am also inspired by my two good friends, Od and Omo, who have good hands in limericks. Please, check out their posts Limerick for Elf at Od's blog, and Limerick : Boss at Omo's.
Have fun and have a great Sunday! :)
That's a good start Balqis! Keep writing more. :)
ReplyDeleteSure, thank you, Sui. Will try to improve my writing. :)
DeleteLOL! How many times did you soak due to such enrage? I used to stop taking foods for a or more days if I wanted something and got something else- Khick! :P
ReplyDeleteGlad for your Limerick, BB! I wrote another earlier but couldn't post- I'll see to pull it on-
Glad you're here to read my limerick, Omo. I didn't know it could make you laugh! I was thinking of word rhymes and put 'sun' there. You never know a sulky girl would storm out of the house for the buns she didn't get, so went out into the sun instead. :D
DeleteThank you for your warm words. Will be waiting for your limerick. :)
You've picked a very nice topic, BB and its a good one! Keep it coming- ;))
DeleteMy Niece/Nephew is enough to soak up the sun for such reasons- LOL
Nice one! And very cute ^.^
ReplyDeleteThank you, Dana. I need to learn more. Your words will be the encouragement. :)
DeleteWhat a first good try Balqis. The more you write the better you become. I also am a fan of Od Liam's limericks too, he is so so good at it. And hope you too enjoy the rest of this lovely Sunday afternoon.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kindness, Rumpunch. :)
DeleteBoth my friends mentioned could write limericks so well which are very humorous. Imagine, I roll into laughter reading them!
Yes, I did enjoy my Sunday and I hope you, too. :)
Very nice for first timer, Balqis.
ReplyDeleteActually it's my first time to about limericks
i mean my first time to hear about limericks
DeleteIt's fun reading limericks. Thank you for your nice words, Ric.
DeleteVery nice Balqis , can't wait for the next ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Aunt Mary. I'll try to write more. :)
DeleteThis is very beautiful, BB!
ReplyDeleteI am very happy for this first time that surely will be a milestone.
I greet a time of many, many wonderful limericks from you!
Thank you for letting us share your talent!
Thank you so much, Od. You never fail in giving me so much inspirations and encouragement to keep writing. You know how much I appreciate that. :)
DeleteWhen I love a certain genre of writing, I put my heart into it. I study on how it's written and try to create my own piece. And you must know, I get the ideas from both you and Omo. Thank you so much, my sifu. :))
You give me too much credit!
DeleteYou do not need any sifu, your own talent is enough!
Thank you my friend!
You're most welcome, Od. :)
DeleteOd is right, BB-
DeleteBesides you should not pass the full "credit" to me for pulling anything that is left- :))
Ok, you'll get what's right! :))
Deletecongratulations on your first limerick dear balqis!
ReplyDeleteI really like it, it made me smile:-)

Thank you, BillyJoMary. I'm happy you like it. :)
Deletei love this subject of buns n cake cos it immediately draws a cartoonish picture as m reading the lines n the sweet, round shapes, i can smell and taste the humor..thats how much texture, image, aroma..if u had added chocolate it would have an even bigger smell wafting across...i really enjoyed it
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kim, for sharing. It's nice to know you love buns and cakes. :)
DeleteI actually added your blog to my favorites and will look forward for more updates. Great Job, Keep it up.
