I'm Burlington Bertie, try not to get shirtie,
not Burlington Bertie from Bow.
I rise at four thirty decidedly flirty
I'm Burlington Bertie you know.

The lads call me Nell and an orange I'll sell
and sometimes I do a quick turn,
but when Burlington Bertie gets down and dirty
it's time fruit sales adjourn.

I'm not sure how to critique limericks. It made me laugh. Given that that's what it's supposed to do, it was good.

[billy]

thanks Todd, i'm trying to build up to something though i have no idea what as of yet

[Todd]

A collection of connected limericks could be cool

[billy]

it's a thought i'm not sure i'd have the staying power.

i'll maybe have a go at a longer version in a week or two. at present i'm trying to go through a serious phase. people are noticing i only write about poo and sex related stuff

I always say, play to your strengths.

Billy I love your poo n sex related stuff....it's real, earthy and above all it makes me laugh...the world would be a poorer place without it.

[billy]

i think so too though it's affecting my table manners

Billy - This was fun .... Can I offer a third verse

I'm Burlington Bertie, try not to get shirtie,
not Burlington Bertie from Bow.
I rise at four thirty decidedly flirty
I'm Burlington Bertie you know.

The lads call me Nell and an orange I'll sell
and sometimes I do a quick turn,
but when Burlington Bertie gets down and dirty
it's time fruit sales adjourn.

One night at a Drury Lane play I was beckoned
Not by perverts, vagrants or felons
But His Royal Highness, King Charles the Second
Who now has a penchant for melons

It seems there aren't many (if any) rhymes for "orange"

to offer is to offer, to do is to do
thanks for the comment.
