There once was a dog named Scot
Who chased sticks all over the lot.
He'd fetch them and bring,
Then shake off the sting,
And everyone would say, "What a good dog!"
*
There once was a cat named Susan.
Who loved to sit in the sun.
She'd purr, and she'd nap,
And when she'd wake up,
She'd stretch and then chase a ball of yarn.
*
There once was a pirate named Pete.
Who had a parrot named Petey
The parrot said, "Arrr!"
And Pete said, "That's quite the call!"
And then they both ate some crackers.
*
There once was a mom named Lou.
Whose kid was a handful through and through,
She cooked, and she cleaned,
And she never complained,
But she wished she could just run away, too.

I'm starting to sense a theme That goes against the rhyme scheme If there's five lines The limerick's fine They're all still very keen
I mean I gotta agree with Lou. I'd feel like running away too if I had a kid, lol! Loved your limericks!
Love them!
Limerick schemerick, but these are grand and really good.
