Hi,
A limerick is a humorous poem with five lines and a rhyme scheme of AABBA. The poems are usually silly, funny, quirky, bawdy, and rude. In a traditional limerick, the first, second, and fifth lines are longer and contain seven to ten syllables while the third and fourth are shorter and have five to seven syllables. In modern versions, the syllable count is more flexible, though the line sizes are maintained.

My Poem
The
missus in green and red had it enough of the mister
Grabbing
a glass and two bottles she poses like a twister
Margarita,
gin, tequila, and bloody mary
Do
yourself a favor, and don’t you marry
Oh,
forget the wastrel mister; it is time for a party, sister!
Beautiful Sri
ReplyDeleteWhole day and night I worked like a donkey
Only to know that I'm no more than a monkey
health and wealth became a filth
and I looking for my secure plinth
o gosh! I strapped for a trip to mountain rocky
I am not a good limerick. I tried, inspired by your writing.
Hey, this is good! I'm in awe of writers who can weave a poem or story impromptu. :D Thank you.
