Limerick Poems

A limerick is a poem with five lines and is usually silly, telling about a person or animal.
In a limerick lines 1, 2 & 5 rhyme and have between 7-10 syllables.
Lines 3 & 4 rhyme and have between 3-5 syllables.
Many limericks start with "There once was a ..." but they don't have to start that way.

Here is an example of a limerick my son wrote for a poetry class...

There once was a puppy named Millie.
Her family thought she was quite silly.
She'd jump off the bed,
and land on her head.
That small little puppy named Mille.

Do you have a pet you could write a limerick about?
