Limerick is a comical five-line poem in which lines A, B and E rhyme. Each of these three lines has three stresses. Lines C an D also rhyme and also have two stresses. Or simply speaking, limerick is a lot of nonsense that rhymes and is written according to the scheme. |

There was a freak girl called Gale
Who was living in a fairy-tale
Where cat and dog
Can write and talk
After a glass of ginger ale.
***
There was a busy man called Brown
Who was trapped because of a blackout
But his magical gift
Repaired the lift
So that he could safely go down.
***
There was a tanned guy called Ryan
Who turned out to be a hawaiian
He lived in a cabin
Not afraid of a ravin
Because he was as brave as a lion.
***
There was a small boy called Jim
Who believed in the American dream
With berries and jam
Bought in a van
It looked like a tasty ice-cream.
***
There was a fat man called Claus
Who liked to live in a penthouse
High up in the sky
He learned how to fly
Because he was afraid of a mouse.
