Title:Sensible Nonsense Anglo-Indian Limericks-The Original Nonsense Verse of Warren Brown
Part II:Limericks 11 to 20
This is the second collection of ten Limericks prepared by me.The purpose of the Limericks are purely for entertainment and are not meant to ridicule any person, place or object.If there are any resemblances to persons past or present, or to incidents and places, they are purely coincidental.This is my second collection of nonsense verses and I do hope that they do justice to the Literary genre of the Limerick.
11.Just because he was so fat
he always sat on a mat
he chewed betel nut and paan
and sang a new Anglo gaan
while he wore an Aussie hat.
12.It was amazing when he was born
in a field of ripened Indian corn,
in no time he committed a sin
so he escaped to foreign
lands,where he became a Don.
13.James was an Anglo born during the Raj
he lived beside and behind the Taj,
all the visitors would turn white
at the majesty of his sight
and they would call him Maharaj.
14.Roy was an Anglo who married a Begum
he chewed paan, she chewed gum
it wasn't long before a boy was born,
they christened him John Donne
and they lived on parathas and rum.
15.Mark and his family lived under the bridge
they didn't have a home or a fridge,
they received no money or relief
so they died in disbelief
when they were gifted a fridge.
16.An Anglo family has an Ayah
who recently went to Bodh Gaya,
she returned fully Enlightened
and quite a bit frightened
now she calls herself Rani Maya.
17.Rudolf lived like a Nawab
on peas pulao and Kabab,
since his cook prepared a paste
Rudolf developed a taste,
Until the Nawab became the Kabab.
18.Anglo Charlie went to Puri
and lived on hot dal-puri,
when he returned from his trip
on a cargo laden ship
he swam in tomato puree.
19.Old man Smith from Angloland
built his house upon the sand,
whenever he would go to shop
he would eat potato aloo chop
as his house sank into the sand.
20.Up the aisle came the Anglo bride
being taken by her husband for a ride,
round and round she chased the groom
with an old broken coconut broom
as the bridesmaids stepped aside.
