Captain America was searching for his shield all over the place.
Wonder woman had chocolate smeared all over her face.
Superman needed a diaper change.
Spiderman needed some pocket change.
While I was helping these adorable superheroes, Batman tugged my sleeve asking “Can you please tie my shoe lace?”

We went for a stroll in the park to enjoy fall
Out of nowhere came a speeding ball
I stooped down and yelled ‘Duck!’
He looked around searching for a duck.
Alas! I couldn’t stop his fall.
The speciality of the above limerick is it uses homonyms . (‘duck’ and ‘fall’) . Homonyms are words with multiple meanings.

As I savor a slice of pizza with soft melted cheese
my diet plan goes on a freeze; my friends tease
Fitting into my jeans would be a tight squeeze,
But my love for pizza will never cease.
Just one slice wouldn’t appease; I say “One more slice, please”.

Sometimes, life frightens you till you are doomed to fail,
Sometimes, life threatens you till you break-down and wail,
Then, say ‘Boo!’ to your fears ,
Say ‘Bye!’ to your tears,
And fight your way back to create a victorious trail.

A skeleton outfit or a Christmas misfit; A spring wear or a swimming gear
Masked as a Holiday Sale, season after season, when you appear
I won’t rest until you are bought
Whether I need you or not.
As you keep piling up in my closet, I wonder why I buy you year after year.

Getting into shape is a terrible tussle,
Not even the rain could stop her struggle.
With Mama out of the house,
her spouse went to drowse,
while the kids followed her to jump in the puddle.

To wear a long skirt that stays or to flaunt a mini skirt that sways
To eat homemade rice or to get restaurant takeaways
To speak in English or to falter in mother tongue
Unable to decide, between two cultures, she hung
This ‘American Born Confused Desi’ is bewildered always.

Once again, I tried my hand at magic,
Once again, I hope it doesn’t end up tragic.
Forgive my stew which made you spew.
Forget my brew which gave you flu.
Once again, be brave to try my pie which looks fantastic.
