You Had To Know That A Limmerick Was Coming...



There once was an Aussie named Shane
Three mice he decided to train
It was quite an art
In the tub they did start
But I question if he’s at all sane

Chopsticks, Bunsen and Harry
Little mice who all seemed quite merry
Some surfboards Shane made
And how his mice played
Then their routines did Shane start to vary

Shane stuck to their training routine
On their surfboards they might then be seen
Was their training enough?
Would the waves be too rough?
Was he pushing and being too mean?

On a day that the weather seemed nice
To the ocean Shane took his three mice
The waves became real
The mice all surfed with zeal
Through the waves, on their boards they did slice

Now they’re famous all over the world
They were seen where the big waves were curled
They were there with the rest
Hanging ten with the best
And not one of them has ever hurled!
