Here's a #Horse related #limerick, since today is #NationalDayOfTheHorse.
A gal's parents, upset, then joined forces
In condemning her new choice of courses.
"I'll be learning collage,
Equine health and dressage."
"Bad idea," they nagged. "Please hold your horses."

It's National #Violin Day, so here's a limerick to celebrate.
(I use #odd #holidays as #limerick & #haiku #prompts. Feel free to join me.)
A fellow who plays violin
Bears his neck pain with grace and a grin:
“Yes the problem is big,
But it comes with the gig;
I must take all my aches on the chin.”

National Pastry Day
"Commence with three varieties of cream,
Add in three different versions of pastry,
and three compotes will provision
three dozen dear combinations,"
– Edouard de Pomiane making sweets.

It's National #Pastry Day, so here's a limerick to celebrate.

A pastry chef promised to can
All her plans to procure a nice tan,
Cuz fresh wrinkles appeared
Ev’ry day, which she feared
Came from baking like cake in a pan.

It's #BlueJeansDay, so here's a limerick to celebrate:

Call them denims or #jeans — I don’t care–
That’s one garment I simply won’t wear.
I don’t buy the appeal
Of its look or its feel,
And I’d rather go naked. Don’t stare!

It's #Sock Day, so here's a haiku & limerick to celebrate:
(I use #odd #holidays as #limerick & #haiku #prompts. Feel free to join me.)
Yet another sock
Has escaped; it's on the run.
AWOL! Or eaten.
***
AWOL socks are a grim laundry given;
Former pairs inexplicably riven,
Dresser drawers oddly littered
With orphans, embittered
And wond’rin’ where old mates are livin’.
