Limerick Challenge
A limerick is a five-line poem with a strict form (AABBA), originally popularized in English by Edward Lear, which intends to be witty or humorous, and is sometimes obscene with humorous intent. The following example of a limerick is of anonymous origin.
The limerick packs laughs anatomical
In space that is quite economical,
But the good ones I've seen
So seldom are clean,
And the clean ones so seldom are comical.
Limerick Day is on May 12, 2009 (see above link). The challenge, of course, is to write a limerick, which we will collect and post as a compilation on May 12th. Please indicate in your titles that your posts are for this challenge. Above all else, have fun!
