There once was a wandering Sim
Whose happiness was filled to the brim
Til one fateful day
Too far did he stray
Now he's begging for mercy from Grim

A story about genius sim Ollie
Whose intense love of food was his folly
"I can make it" he said
"I've a brain in my head"
Now he's hungry cause he burned his tamale

Hah nice one gray lady! ok these ones are a little more negative lol, so be warned:
I used to think it was cruel
To drown all my sims in a pool
But not in this version
I have no aversion
To killing these ts4 fools.
Ok 1 more negative one then that's it:
Dear sims 4 development team
I really don't want to be mean
But your game needs some work
Lack of family play hurts
are tots an impossible dream?

An enemy out on the stoop,
Invited him into my group,
He called me a llama,
Caused lots of drama,
Made me take an angry poop.
I laughed very hard at this XD
Let me try
With the new EP I had some small concerns
But the heart approaches what it yearns
I sended a Sim to the Alien World
With plants purple blue and curled
And a pregnant male Sim returns
There once was a fairy whose wings
Showed wear and tear, and a few dings
She went out to get blotto
But instead won the lotto
New wings - no problem. Kaching!

My Sim wandered round Moonlight Falls
Visited mansions with long dark halls
Dreamt of alchemy potions
Supernatural notions
Well, except for the voodoo dolls

NOTICE: You guessed it, I'm moving this to off topic. But, I'm loving the limericks so, just like the Haikus, if you give us permission to possibly reprint your limericks in a future blog on TheSims.com, please can you edit your limericks and add the following line after each one: Yes, I give EA permission to put my limerick in a blog on TheSims.com and to credit it with my Forum User name.

An exhausted Sim author named May
Plopped her face in her food one fine day
She awoke from a dream
But things aren't as they seem
What's that headstone doing blocking her way?

This has gotta be my favourite! So funny
Though, there are so many hysterical ones! The zombie one is awesome, and Mrs Crumplebottom... in fact, they are all wonderful. It's great to see more people joining in, and even a simguru passing through!
I'll probably hang around here most of the day. I'm amazed at how much I'm enjoying this. I wrote poems as a teen, but nothing since (and I passed teen a long time ago smh.) I'm sorry the thread got moved, I think these deserve a lot more attention. (And I'm done whining - for now. )

My scientist Sim is quite stressed
His experiment wasn't the best
Putting herbs in a beaker
"It'll work, you'll be sleeker"

A very cranky toddler named Frank
Did realize one day that he stank
"If I continue to bellow"
"None of us will be mellow"
"And you can take that to the bank!"

Now in this particular house
Husband Sim was acting a louse
He cheated on Fairy
And flirted with Mary
Not so much a man as a mouse

Every once in a while my poor Sim
Wants to take out his boat and go swim
Long route to the ocean
Gets sick from the motion
For Pete's sake stop acting so dim!

Excellent, @GrayLady. I'm so glad someone else enjoys these little poems as much as I do. It's funny how when you try to write one, a bunch of others come with it.
“Emotional Tech”
My Sim was an emotional wreck,
So I tried fixing him using some tech.
I doubled his fun,
But he got out a gun,
Froze his own bum. What the heck?

Not just one. We had a SimGuru even write one. We got a hashtag, too, #Simericks. So now, you can get your fix on Twitter, too!
Adventure Sim isn't a dummy
But he's feeling all ragged and crummy
Canopic jar is a danger
He bought from a stranger
Could it be he's turning into a mummy?

There once was a simmie named Jack
He liked hitting the bars to talk smack
One night he was spiteful
And less than delightful
His red cheek can attest to that fact

She even thinks hugging is lude,
The awful old hag
Hit my sim with her bag
If you ask me, she's really quite rude.

“The Lothario”
Don Lothario always wanted more
From ladies, ladies galore,
So he dated nineteen
Until it was seen
He was really rotten to the core.
