No Limit

A woman from southern Namibia
had been married to a rich man in Lybia.
More a slavery it seemed
and she frequently dreamed (also: dreamt)
of the one who would say: "I will lib ya!"

Cassell's, Twelth edition, 1968 hat nur dreamt.
Aber! leo.org und Colllins online geben beide 2015 dreamed gleichberechtigt mit dreamt...

Da war dieses Fräulein im Freudenhaus,
das kam mit den seltsamsten Leuten aus,
nur Nikolaus Wicht,
mit dem wollt‘ es nicht,
beim Höhepunkt seufzte der: Ei, der Daus!
(Vielleicht war das alles zu neu fürn Klaus?)

Nüsse knacken
Herr Rüteli, Schlaufuchs aus Basel,
liebt Nüsse (am liebsten vom Hasel)
so sehr, dass er dreamt,
sie hängen vom Hæmd-
zipfel. Baselgefasel.

Schools in weird places
The colourful pronounciation
from each and every nation
is not taught at school,
but even a fool
can learn it at Interrail station.

The two runaways
What happened to Spelling and Grammar
which came under Rütelis hammer?
They hid in a dic-
tionary and nick-
named him Poetryslammer.

But then:

Dispute within - sorry or not sorry?

Not sorry
Conveniently I forgot
the crux of Herrn Rütelis plot:
Faux pas and mistakes
are icing the cakes
which make the No Limit thread hot.

Sorry
Unfortunately I forgot
the crux of Sir Rütelis plot:
Faux pas and mistakes
are icing on cakes
to make the No Limit thread hot.

But then again... old habits die hard.

There was a young lady of station
"I love man" was her sole exclamation
But when men cried, "You flatter"
She replied, "Oh! no matter!
Isle of Man is the true explanation."

(by Lewis Carroll)

Einstein, the frizzy-haired,
claimed E equals MC squared,
which means mass decreases
as activity ceases ...
not my mass, my ass declared!

(by Michael R. Burch)

Da quakt eine Ente in Gansingen,
die täte gar gerne Sopran singen,
nur die Koloratur
ist ihr einfach zu schwur,
gibt sie Laut, tut sie mehr wie ein Schwan klingen.

Ein Berner, geboren in Liebefeld,
nun meistens, wohin grad die Liebe fällt,
wird plötzlich vermisst,
kein Wunder, denn wisst:
Er hat eine Neue in Bielefeld!


("Bielefeld gibt es nicht.")

The limerick packs laughs anatomical

Into space that is quite economical.

But the good ones I've seen

So seldom are clean

And the clean ones so seldom are comical.

A Maori from Paraeoa
found feathers and bones from a Moa.
The bones although crooked
shall later be cooked,
the feathers he keeps for a Boa.


A lively young damsel named Menzies

Inquired: "Do you know what this thenzies?"

Her aunt, with a gasp,

Replied: "It's a wasp,

And you're holding the end where the stenzies!“
