Laughing Along With A Limerick

Older man in sweater and cap smoking herbs in garden holding pouch

Barney knew there’s something he’d need
Somehow he’d get up to speed
So he drank, and he smoked
And he tried to get stoked
But oregano just isn’t weed

Man with beard and hat standing near covered body and rifle in barren landscape at sunset

Louie’s beard grew fast as a weed
To shave was what he would need
but the barber is dead
Shot right in the head
So Old Louie’s stuck doing the deed.

  1. Christine, I loved both of these! That first one really brought back memories! When I was in HS there were some kids who tried smoking oregano! My mother was worried – she had a big container of oregano (she used it in all her pasta dishes) and she marked the level to make sure no one was taking it!! She didn’t have to worry we were not that kind of kids!
