Limerick
Limerick?
Limericks follow a pattern. In a limerick the first, second and fifth lines have the same rhythm and rhyme. The third and fourth lines rhyme with each other too.
Examples
Let's Check
There was a young lady called Milly,
Whose comments were ever so silly.
On a road that was flat
She cried “Just look at that –
This street is incredibly hilly!”
There was a young boy with a cat,
Which he wore on his head like a hat.
The cat in despair
Pulled out chunks of his hair,
So he swapped it instead for a rat.
Jokes
Practice
There once was a man from Bombay
Who slid down a tree on a tray.
Bumped into the Queen
And said “Sorry old bean
But you shouldn’t have been in my way!”
