Limerick collaboration game?
I’m really enjoying the games room ☺️
So I have a suggestion for a game, but if no one thinks it’s good no worries, it might be a silly idea 🤷♀️
We each write a line of a limerick (I was famous for my limericks in my old job and I miss them). The person to write the last line chooses the first line of the next poem.
So for instance:
Person 1: There once was a farmer named Ted 
Person 2: With dear Daisy he wanted to wed
Person 3: He nuzzled her nose 
Person 4: Then knelt down to propose Person 5: But all he got was a hoof in the head 
Person 5: New first line
So here’s my first line to start off:
There once was a dog named Keith
