August is favorites month!  To celebrate one year of Limerick Boutique, I'm bringing back the ones  people liked best.  Got a favorite?  Let me know and I'll post it.  

This one sticks in my mind because of all the wrangling it took to set up the pun.  To have it work both as meaning "looking for something and being disappointed" and also "succeeding in finding a sofa stuffed with feathers from wild birds," plus fit the rhymes and meter...well, it went through a lot of versions before settling on this one.  

Bob's “All Natural” Love Seats purveys
Just a handful that merit high praise.
When I sought a settee
Stuffed from birds that roam free
I wound up on a wild-goose chaise. 

Based on the suggestion: "wild goose chase"
