Rhyme Scheme

Limerick must have five lines with aabba rhyme scheme


Keep it clean.

There was a professor named Stringer


Who with Glamser was put through the wringer.


Old Shelby was bluffin'--


He didn't have nuffin'


And the settlement's really a stinger.

Limericks--blimey, they're great!


Profundity served on a plate.


Turn the subject to Shelby


And immediately they'll be


Satirical.  Why?  It's innate.

There once was a mean little gnome.


He called USM his home.


The faculty was ****ed,


but he insisted nothing was amiss.


And eventually they kicked his a** out of the dome!!

The once was a fifedom named Thames


That followed every IHL whim


Monkey see monkey do


They hadn't a clue


Of morality, In their "fun" jungle gym

There once was a gnome who sat in a dome


And at the mouth he would often foam


I'm having fun he would shout


Which the rest of us didn't doubt


And we really wish he'd just go roam.

There once was a town with a school,


whose professors thought they were cool,


the school went south due to their mouth,


and they wound being the fool!

There once was a red troll who thought


To deny all the mess that Thames wrought,


By just blaming each victim


Who still hurt where Thames kicked 'em.


So Red's won the argument--NOT!

I not only agree with the sentiments (of course) but also admire the poetic skill with which they are expressed.  Bravo!

Me, too. I'm not much for limericks -- every one I write seems to contain the word "Nantucket"...
