WANTED LIMERICK MAKERS & SHAKERS
WHAT IS A LIMERICK?
The limerick is a type of humorous verse of unknown origin.
Short, often nonsensical, and sometimes ribald.
Pick a subject and make it sound humorous.
Try to make it nonsensical and even add subtle ribaldry.
Hundred fifty years ago, Limericks were made into a book for children
Don’t get too raunchy, substitute another close sounding /spelling word to
replace the words you known will get bleeped.
Maybe our children can enjoy some of the rib ticklers we create.
Have a go at it and have fun.
If you want to make it perfect, you should remember that a limerick obeys the metrical foot da da DUM (called an anapest). A good limerick normally contains three metrical feet in lines one, two and five, and two metrical feet in lines three and four. You must stick to this metre in the composition of your limerick.
Make up a limerick now for the world to see, and make your self proud. Do it now. | |

Posted: 1/28/2007 4:00:48 AM | there was a young lady from york
who all local rouees did stalk
but none of them entered
for right in the centre
of her box she had planted a cork
til along came a man who presented
a tool that was strangely indented
with a twist and a twirl
he entered that girl
thus was the corkscrew invented

Big Blue Eyes and Blond Hair, I like to laugh a lot
Big bum and Big Boobies, Oh does that make me hot?
Take me to the races, I want to see them ponies trot!
Say, I’m drinking dry martinis, I like them a whole lot!
I want to bet some money, Say How much do you got?

The 5th line will always be the start of the next verse
