Our first limericks

We have now learned the rhythm and rhyming patterns for limericks.  Here is our first attempt, starting with the word 'pig':

There is a big pig
With tickets to a gig
He went to the gig
and found a lady pig
They trotted away to have some figs

There once was a pig named fig
He really really liked to dig
And chew on a mug
And drink from a jug
But then he tripped on a fat twig

From America there was a young pig
Who wanted to go to a gig
He fell off the stage
Got zapped by a mage
And could not be resurrected by a fig

There once was a super fat pig
Who really liked to chew on twigs
He liked to eat hay
For the whole long day
That made him extremely big

There once a little pink pig
Who found he loved to dig
He once dug a hole
And found a mole
Then decided to eat a fig

There was a pig who loved to dig
He was very big and wore a wig
His first name was Red
He loved his big bed
His favourite food was big fat figs
