The Belgians, they beat us one-nil,
which might seem the bitterest pill;
yet it opens the door
to an easier draw
where we won’t be the grist to the mill.

World Cup Limerick – 5
Saturday, June 30th, 2018World Cup Limerick – 4
Saturday, June 30th, 2018The German’s were very hard put
‘gainst Korea, always on the wrong foot.
So alas, at full time,
coz they weren’t at their prime,
their World Cup campaign was kaput.
World Cup Limerick – 3
Tuesday, June 26th, 2018The England team’s strength was imposed,
and poor Panama duly disposed.
Then because they got trounced,
they quickly announced:
“The canal, to the British, is closed.”
Father’s Day Limerick
Monday, June 18th, 2018It’s long been an annual fad
for every lassie and lad
to send out a card,
so from this humble bard
I say, “Thank you for being my dad.”
World Cup Limerick – 2
Sunday, June 17th, 2018The World Cup’s grand op’ning was heard
‘cross the world, though a strange thing occurred.
while performing with flair,
with his show live on air,
Robbie Williams flipped us the bird.
Airport Bar Limerick
Friday, June 15th, 2018The barmen don’t earn a high wage,
so a go slow they constantly stage.
If they don’t serve me soon,
I swear I might swoon,
or else I could die of old age.
World Cup Limerick – 1
Friday, June 15th, 2018The wait for the World Cup is done,
with a month full of footballing fun.
But if you’re Brazilian,
it’s one to a zillion
you hope you’re not thrashed seven-one.
D-7 Limerick
Wednesday, June 13th, 2018The G-7’s rather passé,
and this losery groups had its day.
So I’m ditching those haters
and asking dictators
to join my D-7 today.
Dotard and Rocket Man Summit
Wednesday, June 13th, 2018One oddly coiffed, one oddly shorn,
on which one looks worse, I am torn;
and if Kim should dare
to mock Donald’s hair,
it could end up scissors at dawn.
G-7 Limerick
Wednesday, June 13th, 2018The G-7’s needing a fix,
for Trump has been up to his tricks;
and with tariffs galore
world trade is at war,
so next year it might be G-6.
