@neilarini saidFootball?
Modern day footballers
Watching football can be trying
Some players can't stop themselves diving
Stay on your feet
Just hit the ball sweet
Oh good grief! Now the poor lamb's crying
Now football's a peculiar sport
The odd country has more than one sort
They dress you in armour
Thru fear it might harm yer
And the football is thrown and caught?!

I'm a big fan of PG Wodehouse and he calls rugby football: football, and association football: soccer.

Another fine solution to my poetic problem, thanks.
Anyway, back to the limericks, here's my attempt at a philosophical one.
Knowledge.
A clever young man from Nepal
Wrote all that he knew on a wall
Then he had to be frank
When he saw it was blank
And admit he knew nothing at all.

Loved Jeeves and Wooster on TV with Fry and Laurie but I never read any.

That's pretty darn good said the cookie
I made it from bottled up Wookie
there was so much hair
and we ate it all bare
cept my old brother , he was a silly old rookie.
