Don’t run away too soon
Your loans are from here to the moon
You have no money
Bank says thats not funny
They’ll send their recovery goon!

Oh Dubai Dubai,
Your buildings reach the sky.

Your beaches fill with sewage thrown in the sea,
Your streets are filled with delivery-boy pee.

Most of your expat workforce are running home scared,
for you or your land, they never really cared.

If your debt is now higher than the highest sky scraper,
On you someone pulled one hell of a caper.

You thought buying a lush pad on the palm island made you cool,
No my dear man, it only made you a fool.

And now the sorrowful looks on some faces,
Tell a gruesome story of bankruptcy cases.

Oh, This wonderful place,
Grew at too much too far a pace,

Oh Dubai Dubai,
your end is nigh...

As property prices plunge down so low,
Investors and workers will soon have to go !
We learn to our cost,
That our jobs are being lost!!
So " Hello to Queen Lizzie and Bye ! Bye ! to Sheikh Mo !!!

They are building right out on the Palm,
So they're hoping the sea's always calm,
There will be stormy times,
In those southern climes,
So they'll all need a prayer and a psalm !!

As the needle reaches into the sky !!
The needle called Burj Dubai
There could be trouble,
As needle meets bubble !!
With a BANG , it could cause you to cry!!!

Absolutly great are these limericks guys...,
never did I heared... something so nice.

What struck me most, is the needle going toast,
I mean the Burj Dubai, wasn't it fly...!

It might be a crisis, but not for Dubai's missises,
As long as Mo's here, the money will flow my dear.

The boom that we faced, at the bust we just dazed,
Now the dollars will burn, but remember....a form of growth will return.

The first should have syllables...eight,
The second should rhyme and add weight,
Then two lines of five,
To keep it alive,
That's what makes a limerick great!!

Will Dubai face a property crash ?
Have Nakheel and Emaar been too rash?
Have they borrowed too much?
What say the Dutch?
We need "answers" ,not "questions" to thrash !!

OR
Is Dubai running right out of cash ???

Not many can answer in rhyme,
But it's something I do all the time,
I have just said,
On more than one thread,
Dubai has gone way past its prime!!

The question that's asked of Nakheel ,
As it faces the turn of the wheel,
Have you got cash ?
To avoid a bad crash?
Or will you end up down at heel??

In Dubai, they play for high stakes,
They're praying for some lucky breaks !!
Hang on says Sheikh Mo !!

Caused spin to turn into a skid!!

Dubai builds a "World" with aplomb,
Whilst hoping to recoup a bomb !!
But their World's all at sea !
Built on sand that runs free !!!
Unlike VISIT-THE-WORLD dot COM !!!!

Just a child in his prime
Redkite is trying to riem
He should be jailed as it’s a crime
To think his words are worth a dime
So keep your posts one at a time
Where is the moderator this is a spam.

In the last line of the previous limerick, , I did not put "banana," I put a shortened form of Richard starting with D .If that is a crime on this forum , it must be true that banana Francis writes novels on horse-racing and that the Banana Van Dyke Show used to be popular on TV!!

Uae kid,
Your poem is as hopeless as hell!!
You must firstly be able to spell,
Riem is spelt "RHYME,"
Like that every time !!
And "spam"rhymes with "prime"???..... You excel!!!

Above me is Kite, below me is Kid.
Both guys are gay, but only hell knows that sh.it

At one moment in time, Kid started to rhyme
You still wouldn't give him a dime, but hell that ain't a crime!

First thursday in February, a kite and a kid
Both playing together, both pretty ugly... a bit

Common with those lyrics, its time for a fight.
Kid show him your tulips, so Kite will kiss you goodnight.

Robby, you really should know,
A poem ,to rhyme, has to flow!!
The syllable count,
Of equal amount,
Can't be very high or too low!!

Redkite,

I know I am dreaming, but also I'm steaming
The phrases I spout, come right out my mouth

What is that cap, youre talking about?
I don't understand, what your sprouting out loud

If you are not gay, then why does Kid say
When I get older, you spank my buttheyy

The wilder we get, the more nonsense we spread
Without any remorse, we kick those Banglaboys

there's only one rhymer elite
jester redkite is slick and he's neat
his doggerel verse
cannot fail to immerse
robbyg and the kid in deep sheet.

(that's the way to avoid getting your posts moderated!)

Dubai still ain't such a bad place
but they b*tch and they moan without grace.
these whiners from hell
want to ring the death knell
on this city; well boys, "IN YOUR FACE!"

Robby's a "Dutchman" as such,
So his poems don't rhyme very much,
As for "Dutch cap"?
That sits on his lap,
Robby! You write "double Dutch" !!!!!!!
