Unassailable Logic
By Madeleine Begun Kane

A gal who looked young for her years
Was often assaulted by leers.
“That is rude,” pals opined,
But she said, “I don’t mind.
Soon enough they’ll replace them with jeers.”

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

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Would go out and drink, saying, “Cheers!
    My love life improves when
    I hang out with such men
    Whose eyesight is improved by their beers!”

  2. I like your contest – you have great first lines…

    A gal who looked young for her years,
    had a butt lift up to her ears.

    let out a giant fart,
    and hasn’t been seen for years.

    From drinking too many beers.

  6. Amanda Moore says:

    A gal who looked you for her years
    Brought all the young Bachelors to tears
    When she said “not my type”
    Their tears they did wipe
    For by then her wrinkles appeared

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Said, “I think it’s time I changed careers
    I’ve been going full throttle
    As a garter belt model
    But I’m going to switch to brassieres”

  8. A gal who looked young for her years,
    One day in the mirror had fears,
    That eating too much
    Of junkfood and such
    Might back up her debt in arrears.

  9. Steve Vitoff says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Stopped in for a couple of beers
    But when her ID
    Showed she was 23
    Well, all i could tell her was, “Cheers!”

  10. Steve Vitoff says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Brought teenage boys nearly to tears
    When they asked her out
    She’d invariably shout
    “Hey, I’m way older than it appears!”

  11. Jesse Levy says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Attracted plenty of leers
    From dirty old men
    Who were told right then,
    “I look good but it’s all just veneers.”

  12. Jesse Levy says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    watched the movie The Sum of All Fears
    She thought Affleck hot
    And that proves she’s got
    Not a whole lot between her two ears.

  13. Rashmi says:

    A gal who looked young for her years,
    Fell in love with some racketeers,
    Her luck ran out,
    When she was fleeced by the louts
    Now she’s chasing some rich financiers.

  14. K Bhattacharya says:

    A gal who looked rather young for her years…
    Was in fact sixty two, said her near and dears
    So while she was busy on the phone
    And, ahem, pumped the silicone
    Something spilled, and some Botox ran out from her ears!

  15. Dr. Goose says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Met a fellow still wet ‘hind the ears;
    When she asked if he might
    Like an “afternoon delight,”
    He did not get the reference, me fears.

  16. A gal that looked young for her years
    attributed it to the number of beers
    that she gave to her suiters
    who thought she looked cuter
    than the actual number of years.

  17. Veralynne says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Had had a reset on her aging gears
    But, like when buying a car,
    Inspecting fiance saw a scar,
    Too much mileage and wear were his fears. … See More

    He hated to dump her and run
    She had been a whole lot of fun
    So he put off the wedding
    Til he’d had enough bedding
    Then he rode into the setting sun.

    The “gal” learned a lesson that day
    “Be yourself” or a price you will pay
    Love’s always an inside game
    If you want to change your name
    “Go natural” is the wisest play.

  18. Ann Milk says:

    A gal who looked young for her years

    WIth Botox’d fat lips
    And Lipo’d round hips
    Perky boobies point to her ears

  19. Dadfive says:

    A gal who looked young for her years,

    Now my bags have flown to Algiers!”

  20. Debby S (Daisy Mae) says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    (Plastic surgery her chosen career)
    Said “A stitch in time
    Saves years—at least nine!
    Check me out. I’m a great marketeer!”

  21. C. Bosco says:

    Impermeable Paradox

    A girl who looked young for her years,
    of stillness had a myriad fears,
    so with a logical grace
    infinitely divided up space,
    but halted in paradoxical tears.

  22. Vibrators says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Than any of her old childhood peers
    Her main reason to reveal
    Was a deal with the lucifer
    She’ll see hell when she smoke crystal clear

  23. Cynthia Boggs says:

    Claimed her secret was daily kefirs.
    Though intolerant to lactose
    I ate twenty of those. And
    I bloated like concentric spheres.

  24. Peter Metrinko says:

    A gal who looked young for her years

    And her figure was dreamy
    But she bought all her outfits at Sears

  25. Steve Nance says:

    A gal who looked young for her years
    Was of course much disdained by her peers
    Her envious cohort
    Made her temper grow so short
    She bagged all their beaus just for beers
