next limerick target: PERTH
...as in Australia. PM me with your verses. (I'll be out of town much of next week so may not be able to acknowledge receipt as promptly as I usual...)

Of limerick Perth there are few
At present, oh, just one or two
It's not really so hard
Find your innermost Bard -
Maybe even an off-color hue?

As in Hue Heffner? I'll try harder to go fishing for Perth.

I've addled one. Or addered one. I guess I'd be addled if an adder were in the upper berth in my bunk beds.

BYW, is an adder a snake with an abacus?

Grrr. I wanted to make something about T (or tea) being the fourth of FIRTH but it doesn't seem to go anywhere...

There really is a firth of forth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firth_of_Forth So you could drink a fifth at the Firth of Forth on the sixth of September.

Yes, but there might be froth in the firth.

Of limericks I have very few
At present - oh, just one or two
You know you can do it
Just put your mind to it
And send me some more. This means YOU !!!

We must face it, the cause has been lost
And oh what a terrible cost
No more games or debate
Now it seems that our fate
Is that the Rubicon, alas, has been crossed.

Though you say you have just one or two
I'm confused, and confounded anew
You must surely have more
As I sent you four
(Was it five?) Memory fails me, it's true.
