The Spelling Bee Winner

Rod, the nihilistic pilgarlic

Went to the bar quick,

Feeling like scree being nudged.

 

If you’re gonna be a quidnunc,

He wanted to get drunk,

Because of what he did with the odious Italian judge.

 

He was married to Vera, a virago,

And I sure even my Ma knows,

They can be damn lippy.

 

A walking doryphore,

Talking more than a whore,

A 100% xanthippe.

 

They had a bobblehead boy,

A real hobbledehoy,

And at best, he could only mumble some.

 

His brain was incondite,

A natural jejune twit,

From the lethologica land of bumbledom.

 

Rod, grab some bottles as he burped,

He took over the bar, usurp,

"My son’s brain has a chimera."

 

"It’s all very insane,

What I did with the tramontane,

Please don’t tell, Vera."

 

There was a big scuffle,

A huge kerfuffle,

When his son got the prize.

 

For Rod, no celebration,

Just a case of cachinnation,

As his son’s trophy was rive.

 

"I want Vera far from me,

Because of her epicaricary",

He would think that matutianal.

 

Under the zephyr willow,

With the judge on her pillow,

It was kink but Vera deserved the truth and all.

 

What he did yesternight,

In the fuliginous moonlight,

Was the reason for his son’s finest hour.

 

For the cause of his boy’s Godspeed,

Was because Rod peed,

See the judge loved auric showers.

I finally got impatient and just did the challenge as fast as possible. So please forgive the grammar or if I used the words in the wrong place.

It was fun but difficult to do this challenge. So be nice.

Good job.  I don't know how you got it to rhyme so well!

That is talent!

Good job. I don't know how you got it to rhyme so well

That was awesome. I was reading it or humming it to the tune of there was a man from Nantucket.

Very cool indeed, mate.  I really like how this resolves itself.  The 'auric shower' bit is inspired genius

auric shower? EEWWWWW!


HAHAHAHA!    Reminds me of a cartoon I saw once where a guy was on this shrink's coach sayin' "you mean I was supposed to take COLD showers???"   

Anyway...

I finally got impatient and just did the challenge as fast as possible.


That's what I did!    But I think you did quite well indeed!

Oh My God..I am soooo slow, I just got the Auric showers! You are brilliant! I'm not just saying that because I am lethologica.

Thanks so much. It means alot.

 

Kelly,

Thanks ... maybe making up our own limericks should be our next challenge. I know a few crazy ones.

That's too funny!

Mark,

Thanks, mate.

I knew all the guys would get it but I was wondering if the women would. Judging by Tova's first line I would say yes.

 

Doc,

In poetry, there is no grammer! Very good.

Thank you ... That's good to know since my grammar skills are lacking.

Roy,

HAHAHAHA!    Reminds me of a cartoon I saw once where a guy was on this shrink's coach sayin' "you mean I was supposed to take COLD showers???"  

One of the reasons I like you, Roy ... you're like me ... you have a million of them.

 

That's what I did!    But I think you did quite well indeed!  

Thank you. It's hard to write something when you don't know 26 words.
