Loony Limerick Competition #4

It's time for the next instalment of this wacky limerick contest. All you need to do is to think of a last line and leave it in the comments section here. There is a (secret) judge monitoring your entries and waiting to choose the best effort. Extra points will be given for humour and creativity.
  • You can enter as many times as you want to
  • The competition closes 48 hours after this post is published
  • The fifth line must rhyme with "cow" and "how"
  • The judge will not be swayed by bribery (I think!)

It wasn't the sow; it wasn't the cow,
The farm was stinking; no one knew how
The farmer blamed aliens whom no one had seen:
"They dumped their crap here, all shiny and green,"

The judge of Loony Limerick Competition #3 was Old Tom Wigley and he chose Akelamalu as the winner with this stirling effort:

Fella with a red suit and bushy beard, said his name was Santa,
Stole a gleaming black-eyed stallion, and rode it at a canter
He declared he was late to deliver the presents,
So he gulped down a dinner of brandy and pheasants
Then was immediately sick on the porch in a planter.

  4. Or even:

    Then the donkeys confessed that they'd pooed in the plough.

    Okay that's enough :-/
    Do you think if I keep submitting entries, I'll win on the basis of sheer volume?

  13. Knowing you have nominated an impartial third party to pick the winner of this competition, I feel it's safe to leave you the "Keep Up The Good Work" award, without being accused of bribery (I think).
