A few Limericks by 2017 PYW Campers--Session 2 "mystery"

​Katie has been through a lot
Both vertigo and pink eye she’s caught
And though she’s a pain
And drives me insane
I cannot deny that I love her a lot.
--Johanna
 
There once was a man in a car.
He wanted to glue it to tar.
It made quite a mess
But he called it “success!”
And now he can’t drive very far.
--Andrew
 
A bright young detective once thought
He’d found the dark figure he sought.
But he didn’t anticipate
Would dissipate
all evidence and he would stay un-caught.
--Meilyn
 
There once was a haunted house
Where dwelled a single mouse.
He scurried and shrieked
at every creak
until he finally decided to move out.
--Emily
 
There once was a monster named Fred
Who caused massive amounts of dread.
Then there was Gypsy Danger
and a Power Ranger
Then the old creature lost his head.
--Tyler
 
 
I was told I was the heir of Zeus
Whose special animal is not a moose.
I wish my best friend had lied;
Maybe then I wouldn’t have died.
But then again, what’s the use?
 
My best friend was really my sister.
My thoughts were a jumbled twister.
If I’d know it all;
I could have stopped her fall.
 ‘Cause now all I do is miss her.
--Eveyln
