Limerick Poems About Mongoose | Mongoose Limerick Poems

The Mongoose

There was a mongoose by a lake,
Who vowed, ‘No more cookies and cake.’
And he later confessed,
(If you haven’t all guessed):
‘…because it’s the year of the snake…’

For Gwendolen’s Limerick contest

Mongoose vis-a-vis Mongeese

If one mongoose is called a mongoose

   Then can't we conclusively deduce

      That two could be called mongeese

         'Twould make a great discourse piece

            Unless ye be dreadfully obtuse

A well groomed and furry mongoose,
Was often thought rather obtuse,
He was quick on his legs,
And was partial to eggs,
Which was why all his motions were loose!
