The Pain in Spain Comes Mainly from Great Danes
by Maryann Valois (Elk Mound, WI)
There once was a whippet in Spainwho had never experienced pain except for the time that he swallowed a dime that belonged to an angry Great Dane.
Here are the basic rules of the limerick: *it’s a five line poem *it is humorous, witty and often nonsensical *the end of the first, second and fifth line have one rhyme and the third and forth a different one *the rhyme scheme is AA BB A *the first line often introduces a place that also appears at the end of the last verse *usually there are nine syllables in the first, second and last verse, five syllables in the third and fourth verse (9-9-5-5-9). Edward Lear wrote many delightful limericks and popularized this form of poetry. Here is a typical Lear's limerick:
There was a Young Lady of Ryde, Whose shoe-strings were seldom untied. She purchased some clogs, And some small spotted dogs, And frequently walked about Ryde.
