(May 12) Today we're celebrating . . . Limerick Day

Limerick Day
A limerick is a five line poem popularized by Edward Lear. On this his birthday, take some time to write your own limerick today. Here is an example to get you started. . .
There once were some rhymes they called limericks
Repeated by smart men and dimwits
They’re easy to make
A real piece of cake
Until you get to the last line
And many limericks can be quite colorful. Remember - There once was a man from Nantucket. . . ??
