Limericks on me brain

Everything except LibriVox (yes, this is where knitting gets discussed. Now includes non-LV Volunteers Wanted projects)

What will become of sad world or LibriVox
when they put meself down for good in me box?
For a man without voice
has naught and not the choice
to make those timely calls to see his docs.

Haha! I kind of cheated. But have you ever tried to rhyme anything with LibriVox?

Kev's in a state unorthodox,
Unable to rhyme Librivox,
Todd, though far from perfect,
And by stage wives henpecked,
Is a real, rhyming Pandora's Box.


Cheers,

I like spending time on Librivox
While dressed in my jammies and comfy socks
Feeling happy and hearty
I have a little party
Enjoying a beer with bagels and lox.

I almost went for lox, too! Hhaa!

Traditionally it’s lox and bagels, of course, but bagels is a tough rhyme.

I need to get a life, don’t I?

:lol:

Okay, I'll play!

This sparrow just loves LibriVox!
To be an unseen chatterbox
is the best sort of cheer;
if you listen, you’ll hear
whoops of joy ‘twixt my babbles and squawks.

I didn’t see Maria’s post earlier. I think she’s the winner!

I thought of a few rhymes for Librivox, but I'm afraid they're all rather thematically disparate.
Four-o-clocks
Sassenachs
Alpenstocks
Aftershocks
Goldilocks

Those are good. We could use them for a LibriVox song for the upcomng anniversary song this year. I bet commonsparrow3 could write something good from this. How about it, Maria?

You can use LibriVox.
It's your treasure box.
Many fairytales are stored.
The mermaid makes you be poured.
Now you are on the back of the magic fox!
!!!!!!.!!!!!!.!!!!.!!!!!!!!!..!!!.!!!!!!!!!!!...!!!!!!!!!.!!!!!!.!!!!.!!!!!!.!!!!
No way. He stole away a pretty thing, you know.
That's your heart.
