[meteorite-list] Meteorite Limericks

[Anita Westlake]

I'm not sure what the contest "rules" are (if any), but here's my shot at it:

A meteor fell in Lost City
T'was no one around, such a pity
Except for a dog
Who thought it a log
And peed on the rock, oh how witty!
   
         **OR**

There was an old lady from 'Bama
Who was hit by a rock whilst in jamas
The rock left a bruise
It made all the news
The rock is now known as a Hammer

         **OR**

I hunt for meteorites from afar
But don't try to track me by car
The site's undisclosed
So stick that up your nose
And go hunting instead in Dhofar

--Anita Westlake

Hey Pekka,

Pitäkää hauskaa!
Let's have some fun and let's have a little contest.
I throw in a Lunar box size S as prize.

Here my 2nd try...


There once was a fall “Buzzard Cooley”
They promised export permits duly.
We waited a year
And start now to fear
That maybe they spoke not so truly…    :-?

Have always admired your english, which is better than with many
natives ;-)

In english poetry you can find texts, which are understable only for
the native lanquage researchers, so your poem is just perfect.

take care,
