INTRODUCTION:
This collection of verses have also been web-published at OEDILF.com, an online humor dictionary that has accumulated 120,000 carefully edited limericks.
As limerick-writers are often tempted to dive into the baser spheres of human life, the dictionary has a "curtained room", accessible only to online members, presumably flagging that the designated verses may not be suitable for children. On his own recognizance, Giorgio has selected the following verses from OEDILF's Curtained Room, based on their requiring only "light curtaining", and taken the risk of offending some readers by publishing them on this otherwise sedate, and arguably family-oriented blog.
Authors' Note: In the above verse, italics and blue font are used to indicate idioms that fall under the grammatical label of "binomial expressions". Read more verses explaining and exemplifying musical clichés of this type HERE.

Authors' Note:
STD: initialism for 'sexually transmitted disease', a problem for which one might consult an STD-clinic or an STD-doc
Although it's principal meanings revolve around the Latin term for flowery or flourishing, florid has come to imply, in the medical context, "referring to a disease or to a symptom in its fully developed form", or perhaps "fragrantly, flagrantly florid".
