Fearful Limericks

Fear is a four-letter word.

It freezes the heart when heard.

A synonym can be fright.

Chests thumping in the night

At the distant caw of a bird.

A man wavers like elastic Jell-O.

His air colored an undignified yellow,

When approached in the dark

At the spot where he parked

By a sinister, knife-wielding fellow.

A fair lady is filled with terror,

When she locates a stunning error,

In her style of clothing

She is currently loathing,

But realizes that she is its wearer.

 A young boy has constant recollection

Of fears of girly infection.

Being chased by tiny beauties,

Who what to shed their cooties

With a kiss seen by visible detection.

A dog hates to see a locked door,

Feeling certain that he’ll pee on the floor.

The footsteps of his master

Travel at any speed but faster,

Leaving said owner with another messy chore.
