On Limericks

I SHALL DREAM

In limericks I shall dream

Things are not always as they seem

They take you by surprise

Make you open your eyes

With clarity, you will beam

*

I discovered a wonderful discussion on

an Amazon.com board.

*

If you love limericks, you will enjoy this.

*

If you have a Kindle AND love limericks,

you will enjoy it all the more.

Visit the discussion and

add your own

limerick.

It’s lots of fun!

*

The rhyme scheme for a limerick is: AABBA.

That means the first, second and fifth lines all

end in wordsthat rhyme with each

other, as do the third and

fourth lines.

MORE LIMERICKS I WROTE TODAY

Ah, Monday has come again
It is not ever my friend
The weekend was great
It really did rate
Monday I wish to rescind

*

The Kindle I finally bought
Like it much more than I thought
I read and I read
It’s  such a good deed
Avoiding all else, I am caught

*

With the Kindle I feel smart
I gleefully add to my cart
I read and I read
But do not succeed
In finishing all that I start

*

Kindle and I were content
In my reading to put a dent
I was learning so much so
I did not hasten to go
For work is rather quite dense

*

To sleep I now must go
For tomorrow I must know
So much that I must do
You really have no clue
I am really hoping for snow

*
