Finish My Limerick — F

There once was a banker named Frank
Who hated to hear coins clank
When they fell to the floor
He shouted, “NO MORE!”

There once was a girl named Ellie
Who drew a green star on her belly
Then, as an excuse,
She said, “Dr. Seuss!”

There once was a baker named Drake
Who fell down while baking a cake —
Broken eggs on the floor,
Sugar, flour and more —

There once was a biker named Charlie
Who loved to ride on his Harley
As he zoomed down the road
He suddenly slowed

There once was a boy named Bruce
Who had a serious craving for juice
Orange, apple or pear
He did not really care

To add a line to –
