What is a limerick, Mother?
It's a form of verse,
said brother
In which lines one and
two
Rhyme with five when it's
through
And three and four rhyme
with each other.
A diner while dining
at Crewe
Found a very large mouse
in his stew.
Said the waiter, "Don't
shout
And wave it about,
Or the rest will be wanting
one too.
There was a young woman named
Bright
Whose speed was much faster
than light.
She set out one day
In a relative way,
And returned on the previous
night
There was an old man of Peru
Who dreamt he was eating his
shoe
He woke in the night
With a terrible fright
To find it was perfectly true.
