Frank Verse

Frank Verse (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane

A very strange fellow named Frank
Ran for gov on a rather odd plank:
If you make me your gov,
You can practice free love.
And he meant it. It wasn’t a prank.

Feel free to write your own limerick using the same first line and post it in my comments. And if you’re on Facebook, please join my friends in that same activity in my Limerick-Offs.

  1. A very strange fellow named Frank
    lost some hair, you might call it a hank.
    For his baldness male pattern,
    he thought: “I’ll go to Saturn,
    and see if that fills in the blank.”

  2. A very strange fellow named Frank
    Sought a cheap way to fill his gas tank.
    He tried ground corn and water,
    Siphoned gas from his daughter.
    Now he sits in jail, drawing a blank.

  3. A very strange fellow named Frank
    Knew just what to do with a plank
    He was brilliantly Wright
    An architect who’d delight
    Ahead of his time and quite swank!

    A very strange fellow named Frank
    Went to a pissoir after he drank
    Then he jerked up the zip
    But forgot to tuck his equip
    And now he has nothing to swank

    A very strange fellow named Frank
    Had a brain that was really quite blank
    He found it a strain
    To remember his name
    So he decided to call himself Frank! ;)

    A very strange fellow named Frank
    Crooned so well, other singers’ hearts sank;
    If that wasn’t enough
    For deference, a rough
    Bunch of guys always had Blue Eyes’ flank.

    A very strange fellow named Frank
    went to rob his neighborhood bank
    Unfortunately the crash
    Left them so short of cash
    he got only two dimes and a blank
