my dad, may he rest, was full of these...welll......i call them limericks, but they do not fit the exact definition. i have no idea who to credit for the original versions....might have been my dad?? but ahhh....this ermm.... "fine" cough, cough...example has been in my head all day. and me in my gracious wizdumb am going to share

without further ado.......

mary had a pocket watch
she swallowed it one day
the doctor gave her castor oil
to "pass" the time away
the castor oil did not work
the time it did not "pass"
so if you want to know the time of day
just look up mary's......
