  1. There once was a girl from St Paul

    Wore a newpaper dress to a ball

    The dress caught on fire

    and burned her entire

    front page, sports section, and all


  2. Its a type of rhyming poem or verse, usually easy to remember, often funny or involving a dirty joke. Named after County Limerick in Ireland, they've been popular for hundreds of years, and Shakespeare even wrote limericks in a couple of his plays.

    Example of a limerick:

    There was a young woman from Crewe

    Who said as the Bishop withdrew

    The Vicar is slicker

    and quicker and thicker

    and 12 inches longer than you.

  3. A Limerick is a humorous poem. The rhyme scheme is AABBA.

    Usually a couple lines long. I don't have much to tell you about it, but this should give you an idea.

  4. some form of poem. like ballads, sonnets, hiku.

  5. A five line poem. The first, second, and fifth lines rhyme and so do the third and fourth

  6. Limerick is a sort of poem

    that rhymes but in an order

    it is like a little verse

    the order is :

    AABBA.

    Like

    'A flea and a fly in a flue

    Were caught, so what could they do?

    Said the fly, "Let us flee."

    "Let us fly," said the flea.

    So they flew through a flaw in the flue.'

    Hope it helps :)
