I think that now is the time
to open yet another thread for rhyme
The old ones were great
for new ones I can't wait
and I hope they won't all be mine!

i once saw a show that I loved
but the word cancel came down from above
the executives were crazy
their thinking was hazy
how I wish I could give them a shove!

inara is quite a girl
she is gifted with diamonds and pearl
but what I want to know
and if we still had a show
the truth about the syringe might unfurl



Can you tell I am bored as hell at work?

There once was a psychic named River.
“She’s creepy,” said Jayne, with a shiver.
And his terror did grow
When she said, “Also,
“I can kill you with my liver.”

(hmm… that doesn’t sound quite right…)

YAY a Limerick! It was good!


There once was a Dr named Tam
who in school it seemed was a ham
He saved sweet young River
Her plight still makes my lip quiver
and now they live on the lam

Oh Joy the llimericks are back!
For weeks I've been mourning their lack.
But sadly for me
I'm so very busy
That I can't give it much of a whack!

I was sad I was mourning you loss
for we both share a love of the Joss
I am glad you are back
though I know time you lack
Just eat right and forget not to floss



Been missing you! Get that work done!

River did Jayne admire
naked in a box, did desire
she's not all there
But Jayne doesn't care
Will he listen to Collin's that liar?

Your advice is both kindly and wise
But it won't come as a big surprise
That I've been tempted to play
And have just one last say
Before I get back to work *Here she cries*!


Thinking up rhymes for my Mal
Has boosted my flagging morale.
I've come over all quear
Thinking of his tight rear
And how one day I will be his gal!

Going now, talk later!

Please go on with your schemes,

Excellent first limerick!

atherton wing was a ass
for a rich man, he was class
he treated inara like dirt
I think she was hurt
but Malcolm proved he was the one with class!

ok not really applicable, but I felt the need to share...it actually makes me think of Jayne:)

On the chest of a barmaid from Wales
Was tatooed all the prices of ales
Whilst on her behind, for the sake of the blind
Was precisely the same, but in braille

I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

Welcome, Bigwolf, to the fray!
I hope for more rhyming you'll stay.
You're a pleasure to meet
And your verse was so sweet,
That I had to come back here to play!

Our dear Wash is a leaf on the wind.
Without him the crew would be skinned.
I really can't bear
(It's completely unfair)
That he ended up horribly pinned.

Wash is feeling quite mad
His wife he thinks Malcolm has had
Its not really his thought
and he really should not
wish that malcolm was that kind of cad

I need to get back on the roll!

This'll probably be immensely mediocre:

Simon boarded the ship
To give the Feds the slip
But Dobson was there
And caused quite a scare
'Til Mal shot him from the hip.

Excellent Limerick! Silly You

When Mal is trying to get you to listen
When the sweat on your brow starts to glisten
Belive what he says
Don't disagree or I confess
You will find yourself kicked through the engine.

A good little Browncoat am I
Slapping up posters low and high
Put one on the wall
Get no work done at'll
'Cause Mal keeps catching my eye.

Silly but true. I think when the boss catches on, I'll have to take Mal down.

OK here goes......
There once was a Captain named Malcolm
Who would powder his cute bum with talcum
And his pants were so tight
That they ripped at the sight
Of the first pretty lady to "couch him" [Nandi]

She can holler till our ears bleed, although I would take it as a kindness if she didn't.

For those to whom rhyming's a bust,
I'll tell of that which is a must
Go to the store and look
A dictionary rhyming book
Then folks'll eye your work with lust.

I've mentioned my penchant for rhyming.
What I can't always get is the timing.
It sounds good in my head
But when it is read
The words are not great at aligning.



My thoughts have veered wildly off track
As I think of Mal out in the black.
With his devilish smile
And great laid back style,
I think that he'd like Cap'n Jack!

Imagine the two of them meeting.
Jack's masscaraed eye winks in greeting.
They'd make a great team.
Ah, well, I can dream!
Must go before I start overheating!


(Just come from the pirate thread. Sent me a little funny!)

OK........
There once was a great show called FIREFLY
That lifted the spirits of you and I
But the honchos at FOX
Who were dumb as a box
Made decisions that caused us to want to cry.

So the Joss fans rose up to present a plan
And the browncoats decided to take a stand
And Serenity Day
Was a triumph they say
And the 'verse will return CAUSE WE SAY IT CAN!!!


Shoot the man, not the horse. Dead horse...cover, live horse..great pile of panic.

For a grumpy old fart who's covered in crust
This place has become an incredible must
And it's proven quit true
That I'm stuck here like glue
With my limericks all squeaky with rust


If you want more of these
You'll have to say please
Cause it took me all night
To create this delight
So go and laugh till you sneeze

Where are the pirates when you need them to save us from this.

I think everyone here is so clever.
Such talent I have come across, never!
Don't indulge in self-doubt.
Let your rhymings spout out!
To live up to you, I shall endeavour!

(I'll think of a Firefly related one later. Just woken up!)

In response to all the clever cpt. tightpants posts (and I hope you've seen the Wash outtakes for this one).


What a gorgeous sight is our River!
Inara, I surely do pine to kiss'er.
But the best sight to see,
'tho she'd surely kill me,
Is Zoe, where the good lord did split'er.

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.


Not sure that I can limerick properly
I am fuzzy and lacking in coffee
I will of course try
And though it's not wry
My rhythm is of highest quality

The mudders all thought Jayne a hero
'Cos he's droped on them mucho dinero.
Though he showed he was flawed
On Canton he's still adored.
And his legend continues to grow.

Though River could sometimes be loud,
they huddled within their own cloud.
When the sky shown at last
and their hooves touched the grass.
They remembered how to be cows.

There's a problem with your brain being missing!
Zoe, fondly, her captain was dissing,
When robbing a train
Turned out a real pain.
'Nara helped with suspicion dissmissing.

"Just scare him" said Mal to Jayne
"pain is scary" said Jayne to complain
He got out his knife
Collins' fear was rife
In his pants do I detect a stain?
