Helsinki Limerick

Posted on December 14, 2022 by B Gourley
Reply
There was a cafe owner from Helsinki
whose coffee shop was often called "dinky."
"You must pack them in --
the fat and the thin --
to save on heating, not to be kinky."

nordic summer.

Helsinki Limerick

Posted on July 17, 2021 by B Gourley

There was a fussy man from Helsinki
who loved his town wasn't dirty or stinky,
but covered in snow 
and twenty below
the place is pristine, but also quite inky.

Finnish Limerick

Posted on October 10, 2020 by B Gourley
Reply

There was a hardy man from Finland
who wanted to move further inland,
but sallying forth
meant moving more north,
and he feared he’d wrap into Japan.
