Come Sit A Spell On Carol's Porch!


Sitting on my porch and staring at the sunny sky is the place where my Lame Limericks are born.However, keep one eye on the ground, because you never know what's hiding under the porch!

AAAHHHHHH!!!! See what I mean!?!?

This page deals with short quips about everyday life.


Housework help needed so bad it's not funny.
I'm out working just trying to make money.
But a word of advice,
Is not very nice,
When it comes from the lips of a dustbunny!

I read, "Ten Items or Less" with glee.
This milk had to be home expressly.
She was dead ahead,
Holding 11 loaves of bread.
I remembered, the rules apply only to me.

A line he didn't even try to rehearse,
Sam delivered it in only one verse.
"The candy's fuzzy again!"
So I knew just then,
Definately time to clean out my purse.

A fork in the drawer could not be seen.
All were in the dishwashing machine.
I grabbed and bit,
Just then it hit,
The dishes within were not clean!

A little boy played in a mud puddle.
Then something happened that would befuddle.
Forty dollars he found.
So now all around,
That lake of mud his sisters did huddle.

My cart was so full it was not stable.
Crammed as much food in as I was able.
The cashier gave a look,
Regarding my checkbook,
When I told her it was at home on the table.

All bright, red and in a big pot,
My poinsettia's beauty anticipated alot.
The holiday passed by,
My flower began to die,
A green thumb I perceive I have not.

After "one of those days" I was shown,
A warm bath was needed to be alone.
Just settled in,
Bubbles 'neath my chin,
I hear the unanswered bell of the phone.

Hopefully more "Lame Limericks"
