Could Santa Go Faster In A Car? A Christmas Limerick

Each of the reindeer's a flyer
They pull Santa's sleigh ever higher
But why not a car
If you want to go far?
'Cause a sleigh can't get a flat tire!

At Christmas - A Vintage Edward Lear Limerick Poem

There was an old lady whose folly
Induced her to sit upon holly
Whereon, by a thorn
Her dress being torn
She quickly became melancholy.

All hail the bells of Yule
And the golden peel they play
May the message they tell
As they rise and they swell
Bring joy to your heart today.

A Penguin Named McGillicuddy - Winter Limericks for Kids

I have a young friend named McGillicuddy
Whose favorite toy is Silly Putty
She thinks it quite nice
To sleep on the ice
So I guess that makes her my chilly buddy.

Carly the Elf Likes Custard - Limericks for Children


Carly the elf was flustered
When she tasted the caramel custard
Her taste buds rejected
The flavor detected
---The stuff was stadium mustard!

And your jolly St. Nick is hairy,
But remember the reason,
For this happy season,
Is Jesus, and Joseph, and Mary.

There was a young elf named Moll
Who purchased a new parasol
With a handle so long
That she had to be strong
Or she couldn't have lugged it at all.

Said an elderly man with gray hair
Who had searched for his specs everywhere
When one dared to propose
That he look on his nose
"How do you suppose they got there?"

Who loved to tweet tweets on her twitter
But this broke a rule

And the loss of her phone made her bitter.

For to kiss underneath it is jolly."

Who wanted to hog all the glory
He claimed with much noise
That he made all the toys
But we know that wasn't the story.

Santa Is Checking His List - Christmas Limerick for Kids

A father told his son to go, go, go,
To his room to clean it but no, no, no,
The boy, he refused,
And the dad, not confused,
Said, "I guess that there'll be no ho, ho, ho!"

He was good at only one thing
He was clumsy with tools
And broke all the rules
But boy could he sing, sing, sing.

A Sleigh Bell Named Tingle - Christmas Limerick

There was a young sleigh bell named Tingle
She loved to ring and to jingle
She shined herself bright
'Cause on Christmas Eve night
She'll be on the sled of Kris Kringle.

We Three Kings - Christmas Hymn - Limerick Style


Three kings of Orient are
With gifts we travel afar
Field and fountain
Moor and mountain
Following yonder star

Born on Bethlehem's plain
I've gold to crown him again
King forever
Ceasing never
Over us all to reign

Incense to offer have I
To honor a deity nigh
Prayer and praising
All men raising
Worship him God most high

Myrrh is bitter perfume
It breathes of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing
Bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb

So glorious behold him rise
King, and God, and Sacrifice
Alleluia
Alleluia
Earth to heaven replies

O wondrous star of night
With royal beauty bright
Westward leading
Still proceeding
Show us the Perfect Light

A Wreath Named Jo - Christmas Limerick Poem For Kids

There once was a wreath named Jo
She was proud of her big, red bow
Her circle of greenery
Made beautiful scenery
In the light of the fireplace glow.
