Scouting Limerick Contest

[OldGreyEagle 5]

Of all the time on Scouter Dot Com I have spent

I consistently have one very special lament

The discussions can get heated and furious

But the one thing that I think is curious

Is the speed which some call for others to get bent

Venturing go I

With Green Shirt and the wide sky

We have Girls, Do you?

At Ponil we came off the trail

Among us, were none who'd fail

At the station in Raton

The homebound crew got on

The last part of our trek by rail

A heck of a Scoutmaster is Gwd-Scouter

As a woman leader she has silenced her doubters

And it occurs to me

Just where would that Troop be

Had they decided to troop on with out'er

Wracking my brain to think of a rhyme, I didn't think it would take all this time, but I'll sit here all night thinking, until my eyes tire of blinking, to bring you a limerick that is fine.

Lisa is a good ol' Bobwhite

Her posts here are usu'lly right

We may not agree

Nor eye to eye see

So right now I wish her good night!

A Scouter from Georgia is Gonzo1, his son and the troop is having fun, He doesn't like dining halls, or the Elvis collars at all, but he can crack your back when you're done.

Okay, how about a group effort. Let's try to keep the timing right too. I'll start:

 

There once was a scout at Camp Geronimo

[OldGreyEagle 5]

There were many things scouting he wanted to know(This message has been edited by OldGreyEagle)

[Aquila calva 10]

He went to his tent

[Gonzo1 10]

 

As he was tired and spent

 

[ASM915 90]

And throughout Geronimo his snore they did know.

[Gonzo1 10]

These three related:

 

Let's look at philosophy

Some say drop DRP

Others say no

Without Him can't grow

'Cause with Him, the best scouts we'll be

 

With Merlyn or LisaBobbie

We'll discuss merits of DRP

'Round campfire we'll chat

'Bout this thing or that

Hopefully, friends we can still be

 

I look up to my friend Packsaddle

A teacher, not herder of cattle

We usually agree

But not always you see

Down a river we someday can paddle

 

[SWScouter 34]

Alright, this is what we got:

 

There once was a scout at Camp Geronimo.

There were many things scouting he wanted to know.

He went to his tent.

As he was tired and spent.

And throughout Geronimo his snore they did know.

 

Let's try again:

 

There once was a great general named BP.
