Daas yochid said it clearly
And I hold it very dearly
The rules they say
Are needed to play
Now please come and hear me
I will now pass on
What really has not gone
Very far behind
This post of mine
Now please don’t yell mom (random?)
The rules they say are few
But lines one and two
Also five
Have to rhyme
Then 3 and 4 too
The rhymes I see you have
The syllables need a tad
Of work by you
Oh my it’s true
At me please don’t be mad
The first 2 limerick lines
Can have at most 9
The next are five
And then you dive
Into limerick mines
Before you get limerick heaven
The last line no more than seven
Syllables fine
And then you dine
On limericks and leaven
*whew*
