Theme for collaboration suggested by Tim Smith Two enormous old toads crossed the road On Tom’s back lounged Thomasina toad Both are ugly and warty Thomasina’s so naughty As her bowels on his back she’d download 06-16-17 WRITTEN BY JAN ALLISON When Thomasina toad dumped on old Tom He thought her poop explosion was a bomb He hopped in the air gave her a mean stare shouting, "I'm not taking you home to Mom!" WRITTEN BY LIN LANE Ribbit rubbit robbit 'n ro this crazy toad has got to go She's turning quite mean - Fifty shades of green No time to chat but still does crow WRITTEN BY TIM SMITH "Why don't we do it in the road?" Said Thomas, the old horny toad Thomasina hissed, "Get a load of this!" and a "blessing" on him bestowed WRITTEN BY LIM'RIK FLATS Thomasina was on a road trip Her taxi was Tom's back she'd grip But she strained as she held And her bottom expelled So she said "I've just left you a tip" WRITTEN BY RAY GRIDLEY Tom and Thomasina were the perfect pair They were ancient toads without a care He had a huge wart She gives a mean fart Anyone in her vicinity better beware! WRITTEN BY ALEXIS Y Now Tom was an over achiever He wanted the lady, not leave her He sprayed his back with Scotch-Guard and rubbed down with lots of lard the dumper was now the receiver WRITTEN BY DALE GREGORY COZART Tom gave Thomasina the boot Got sick from the smell of her poot told her to get lost right after he tossed She gave him the one finger salute WRITTEN BY DANIEL TURNER Thomas and Thomasina loved to hear the waterboatmen rubbing their gear Thomas tried and started to croak causing Thomasina to choke you two will never get it right I fear WRITTEN BY SEREN ROBERTS When T'sina hopped on for a ride Old Thomas reminded his bride, "Though you're my sweet dish, on the road we'll get squished", "Just do it!" was her terse reply. WRITTEN BY CRAIG CORNISH Thomasina and Tom a heavy load Lingered a little too long on the road He could have kissed her all night shocked at the oncoming lights Croak and ribbit was heard; two flattened toads WRITTEN BY EVE ROPER PLEASE SOUP MAIL ME ANY SUBMISSIONS FOR THE COLLABORATION 06-16-17

How can the soup ever lack fun while you are here Jan. This is another excellent Collaborative Limerick. Everyone does so well in these. Why shouldn't people enjoy the fun and join in as they do. Finaly, i have decided i can't do Limericks. I do enjoy writing those by others though. My road ever lies in a different direction. I am within my fun bubble for today. Keep right on being who you are Jan. I do so love your fun. Excellent work by you all. Hugs....Mike. XX This is a fave.

Thomasina and Tom a heavy load, Lingered a little too long on the road, he could have kissed her all night, shocked at the oncoming lights, croak and ribbit was heard; two flattened toads

Tom gave Thomasina the boot, Got sick from the smell of her poot, told her to get lost, right after he tossed, She gave him the one finger salute

"a proper poop poem" ... I'm not sure there is such a thing, even if the alliteration is excellent.
