Lung Love Limericks

You started off thinking it cool
But ended up looking the fool
Your lungs have turned black
Your clothes reek; you hack
Should have listened to those films at school!

 

You think that it's too hard to quit
You say you don't have enough grit
But try to take Skoal
through your neck with a hole
It sure ain't that easy to spit!

Technology Woes

There once was a fellow named Jim

Bought an iPhone and then on a whim

Put it on his wife's lap

With a lovemaking app

Now she sleeps with the phone and not him!

I just can't stand the smell any more

Sleeping with you is a chore!

You reek of stale smoke

Your stench makes me choke

Either quit or else sleep on the floor!

Tobacco will end your life quicker

It's just as addictive as liquor

It won't help you chill

It just makes you ill

And it's not good for your ticker!

It's time that you put out your butts

Get out of your tobacco ruts

Because smoking is crazy

So just quit; don't be lazy

To continue you'd have to be nuts!

Bad Habits

 A bad girl whose will was quite strong

Stuck her tongue out despite it being wrong

On a gray, icy day

It got frozen that way

And thus it stayed all winter long!

Something Light For a Change!

Three daring and headstrong young lasses

Failed to heed the advice of the masses

Who warned, "The ice is too thin!"

And so they fell in

Getting soaked from their hats to their asses!
