Limericks

Moon man

There was a man from the moon.

He was looking for the golden spoon.

So he started his quest

He thought he was the best

But he only found his doom.

Bob

There's a man named Bob

He couldn't get a job

He was really sad

And really mad.

Today started out like any other day, I woke up went downstairs to make breakfast, Blueberry pancakes, my favorite. As I get to the door and grab my keys I notice something was different, there was a new key. (“This is where my life was turned upside down, sometimes literally.”) Hi, my name is Andy Anderson, I know what your thinking weird name right?, well my bid nerd of a dad said it sounded like a superhero name. Well enough about me let's get back to the key, yes this key it was a small gold key with small Spiral shaped engravings. I didn't think much of it at first until I picked It up. The key began to glow a bright shimmering blue, it floated into the air and seemed to insert itself into thin air, it turned itself and a door appeared. As it opened, I felt a strange force pulling at me it was dragging me through the door. I tried to hold on but the force was too strong and I was pulled into the darkness. I was scared, yet calm. I opened my eyes to see myself floating in a large dark void, the only light source was doors, thousands upon thousands of doors as far as I could see.  It was beautiful, shimmering lights. After snapping back to my senses, I realized that I was alone. I started freaking out. I was just floating there all alone, with no hope of escape, I wanted to leave. I wanted to be anywhere but here somewhere, with people, with anyone. Suddenly one of the doors appeared in front of me, opened and pulled me in. I found myself outside and in a group of people. I was so confused I had no idea what was happening, looking around I noticed something, It was the Eiffel Tower. I went up to a guy and asked where I was, he replied in French. I began to sweat, how did I end up here I thought. I started having a panic attack, I wanted to go home. I realized that I still had the key, if it brought me here then it could bring me back. I took out the key and went back into the void. I began to concentrate, concentrate on home, my family, and blueberry pancakes. Then it happened, a sudden burst of energy as a door appeared and pulled me through. I arrived at a small recognizable house, it was my parents' house, with a sigh of relief I began to walk. Then the door opened, and what stepped out was a young boy, I didn't know why he was here or who he was so I decided to ask. “Hi im Andy” he replied, The situation quickly resonated with me, I had travelled through time, back to my old house. I knew I had to leave quickly, something about the time-space contuit or whatever. So I went back into the void, I started to get used to all the floating and flashing lights. I began to focus again, 399 Oak Drive, September 3, 2019. I started repeating that sequence over and over again in my head, I wish to go home, I thought, I wish it was all just a bad dream. A door opened and I appeared in my bed. Getting up slowly I thought, “this can't be a dream, can it?”. I headed downstairs to see that it was empty, no leftover blueberry pancakes, nothing. I was so happy, until I looked at my keys, The small gold key was still there, so instead of picking it up, I just put it into a box and left it, opened a bottle of Whisky, and drank.
