This idea is similar to the "Give me Five" post, but rhymes instead. Each person contributes one line of a limerick, continuing from the previous person's line, and after 5 lines we will have a complete limerick that's sort of makes sense.

After that we need to start a new limerick, but BASED on the previous one - in that way we will have a continuing story but completely in limerick form.

These don't have to strictly be limericks, ito structure - but the "word flow" at least should be the same. Let's see if we can "stump" each other . . .

I'll start

(James, the rhyme is A, A, B, B, A).

His name was James Tong,

(and the next line should be something like "And his hair was too long," and the last line something like, "and his head was all covered in muck." Sorry! )

(Somehow we seem to have lost the Limerick meter, or rhythm, or whatever.)

A classic limerick is this:

There was a young lady from Niger (da-dada-da-dada-da-da)
Who rode with a smile on a tiger. (da-dada-da-dada-da-da)
They returned from the ride (da-dada-da-dada)
With the lady inside, (da-da-dada-da-da)
And the smile on the face of the tiger. (da-da-dada-da-dada-da-da)

Or something like that! However, other limericks are different but somehow sound like they should.
