October Limericks

All of these limericks were originally posted to Esther Chilton’s Laughing Along With A Limerick during the month of October 2025. Some I have slightly modified. I’ve even added titles which I hear limericks are forbidden to have.

I’ve added two photos for those who prefer a picture to a thousand words of nonsense.

Crazy Love

“That is crazy!” I thought though it’s true
like the fact that the blue sky is blue
like a gift from above
like a message of love
like an answer just waiting for you.

Prompt word “crazy” October 6, 2025

Be Careful Whom You Follow

When I followed, you said, “Follow through,”
but I followed. What more should I do?
“Well, I gave you a map.”
Like a rat in a trap,
yes, I followed, but why didn’t you?

Prompt word “follow” October 13, 2025 (slightly modified)

Moon Cheese With Bread And Wine

Although some say the moon’s made of cheese,
is there wine and fresh bread with that, please?
Are there olives as well
and soft moonbeams to tell
of that night with the warm light through trees?

Prompt word “bread” October 20, 2025 (slightly modified)

Dusty Dust

So much dust! Can a sneezer now trust
all the dust that a sneezer now must?
When I sneeze I will say
to the dust: Blow away!
But it stayed since it’s just dusty dust.

Prompt word: “dust” October 27, 2025
