Limerick - Jack Steals Food.

Poem By: Jack12
Poetry


My first try at a limerick - and notice that Jack in this poem is NOT me! It's just funny, and silly. View table of contents...

Limerick – Jack Steals Food.
 
    Jack stole an apple to get
    Money and began to fret.
He told that if his name wasn’t Jack,
Itching was beginning on his back,
  So he flew off to escape in a jet.

Believe it or not, I made it out to be that way. The basic idea is, Jack, a man and servant, steals food to seel it and get money. Well, he begins to fret. His back begins itching (in a sense) because of it, so he steals a jet and flies away. There are a lot of ridiculous holes in this - but, it's a limerick.

it is funny. lol. i liked it.

Sorry, didn't understand your comment too much. Jack smart? Which Jack? Me or the one in the poem?

Hehe it is a little humorous, personally I don't get limericks that often unless I read them a couple times over. It was different, but also good and nicely done ;-)

Thanks.

It was interesting! :D
And funny of course! :D

though in one of the lines, "He told that if his name wasn’t Jack", it might make it flow a little better if 'told' was changed to 'said'. But that is just my opinion! :D

Nice job Jack! :D
