Limerick Challenge

Write a limerick to tell a humorous or absurd story.

Limericks are a structured five-line form of poetry, typically with a comedic or outlandish tone. The established rhythm (AA-BB-A) and the thematic focus of humor both participate in creating a lively, distinct mood. This prompt fosters understanding of how strict structures can shape a poem’s content and inspires the exploration of using humor and absurdity in your writing.
