Golf Limericks

by M. Wangerin on January 4, 2010

in Humor

Two original compositions:

 

There once was a ball from a sleeve

Whose behavior you would not believe.

When I told it to bite

It responded with spite,

To the joy of my opponent Steve.

 

There once was a golfer named Woods

Who always would win when he should.

Then the last PGA

Y E Yang won the day,

when nobody thought that he could.

 

I know, don’t quit my day job! Anyone have any other SFW limericks they’ve written??
