A smiler
"There once was a lady from Wilts.
Who walked up to Scotland on stilts;
When they said it was shocking
To show so much stocking
She answered, "then what about kilts"?

The reply was "We don't walk on stilts
When traditionally wearing our kilts
So then it's not shocking
To show woolen stocking,
Not nylon, as ye wear in Wilts!"

A limerick’s a nice bit o’ fun
To those who know how it’s done
Jeannie and McClef
Have started…any left?
The score now is one and one!

I know nothing of limericks of Wilts,
though I once owned a nice pair of stilts.
Of limericks, some thirty
are considered so dirty
as to give a dear lover the jilts.

This thread is a really good read,
I'd hate to spoil or mislead,
But I really must say
Jeannie welcome and Hay!
Carry on and I wish you God Speed.

There once was a man from Wilts
Who spent much money on kilts
Once fashionably attired
To his hometown he retired
And was mobbed by the ladies in Wilts
If you are regimental beneath your kilts
Do not go forth on stilts
Off to jail
You may sail
Where there is neither stilts or kilts
There once was a young lady from Wilts
Whose boyfriend had lots of kilts
Thir parent all dreaded
any thoght of them wedding
So they eloped to London from Wilts
There are no single women in Wilts
They've left to find men who wear kilts
Now many a lass is all sad
For the men who wear plaid
Have married women from Wilts
There are lots of new parents in Wilts
Who are all wearers of kilts
They have tartan diapers
And plaid nose wipers
Tartan is not spartan in Wilts

Loved your reply! Will put those in my book of Limericks. I take it that these are
composed by you? If so, many congrats!
