The austenland limerick by Laura Middleton, friend of the author and limerick super-genius If the Pembrook Park (a.k.a. Austenland) brochure were written in limericks: Our sales pitch: If you're seeking a lovely vacation, Or you've got (shhh!) a Darcy fixation, Then come and make haste! We'll keep it all chaste But won't skimp on the fervent flirtation. Our location: Forgo the hot sun of the beaches. Walk gardens, taste sweet English peaches, Enjoy our terrain. (Ostensibly, Jane.) Did we mention the men all wear breeches? Our guarantee: For one of our gents you'll be fallin'. Any reticence we'll be forstallin', 'Cause your corset's tight strain Cuts the blood to your brain; Then, any old guy looks like Colin. Return to main austenland page |
