Limerick Contest Week One. Ned. The Winners and Grinners.

img

Starting a new Contest at the start of a 30 Day Rewards Pool fill is a bit like trying to start a new liquor sales outlet in Salt Lake City. So one might think!

I am pleased to say that the good Limerickers of Steemia ignored such trivialities and have joined the frivolities with much mirth and merriment.

Please visit the #limerickcontest channel and join in the fun.

Many thanks to @gardenlady for the provision of this week’s word ‘Ned’ – I think you inspired a few classics along the way. I hope you enjoyed reading these as much as I did!

In recognition of all the stalwarts who have a sense of fun:

SteemTrail and ebryans did start
A new contest that got blown apart
The Rewards Pool is Dead
So write rhymes about Ned
Thank goodness these Steemers have heart!

The Winners of Week One

’NED’

⌘ ⌘

Third Place receives 100 TRAIL and 4 STEEM

Ned by @whatageek

She asked for advice from @ned
on how to invest all her bread,
He said "to be wise,
If you want steam to rise.
Just come spend a day in my bed."

⌘ ⌘

Second Place receives 200 TRAIL and 6 STEEM

Ned by @aubreyfox

If I was a man called Ned
I'd change my name to Ted
I don't know why
Just something I'd try
I may even call myself Ed

⌘ ⌘

First Place 1st place receives 400 TRAIL and 10 STEEM

The Lay of Ned and Winifred by @caweyant

At lunch, Winifred said to Ned,
"I'll only give head when we're wed."
So he jumped to his feet,
Found a priest on the street—
And they held the reception in bed.
