There was a man who lost his hat Blown off his head like a nervous bat When he finally found it He knew it would not fit The hat had changed to fit the bat
There was a young man of note who had dreams of girl swimmers afloat He entertained thoughts of their bodies quite taut and said'I'm going down under by boat'
Sounds like something straight out of Doc Seuss - From Bartholomew Cubbins' caboose, Or the grandest gato With a grander chapeau. Either way you sure kept us bemused.
LOL Reminds me of Pat and the Hatt ... RYN: So pleased you picked up on the meaning behind the tunes changing their reason, because that's exactly what I was trying to say with those lines. That different tunes/songs bring different memories and emotions as we hear them. Thanks for noticing :)
Poor man. I hope his head doesn't get cold. :) Peace, Linda
ReplyDeleteGood too see you've penned another limerick.

and oh my how fuuny he'd look if he wore that...smiles.
DeleteWatching all that was a certain cat
ReplyDeleteWho fancied feasting on that bat
But the bat heard a cry
(Like the cat, he was sly)
He vacated the hat to the cat.
Couldn't resist as everyone else was playing. (ala Dr. Seuss)
This was fun! Enjoyed it.
In the ’50s they all wore hats
ReplyDeleteNow they’re in closets with gnats
Except if you’re bald
You still wear them all
Yet the ladies won’t give you a chat
lol... made me smile...
ReplyDeletei was in the zoo in a room once, full with bats...and wish it had been hats...ha...i see you had some fun as well with the limericks...smiles
ReplyDeleteGood fun! If a bat flew off with my hat I would be pissed!
ReplyDeleteOh, how did that happen? cute
ReplyDeletehmmm...that's too bad for the man.
ReplyDeleteOh no! It’s really quite batty
ReplyDeleteto lose his good headgear like that. He
must be so sad.
When it sat on his head,
he surely felt ever so natty.
like the new layout by the way...

Laffin--I've seen hats where wearing a bat would be a huge improvement, actually.
