<h2>Limerick.</h2>

Limerick are short and humurous poems consisting of only five lines, they were popularized by an english poet named Edward Lear. Edward wrote an entire book full of limericks, it was called "The book of nonsense".

A very popular Limerick is:

<em>“Hickory dickory dock. </em>

<em> The mouse ran up the clock. </em>

<em> The clock struck one, </em>

<em> And down he run. </em>

<em> Hickory dickory dock.”</em>

Limericks are supposed to be nonsensical and they have an  a-a-b-b-a rhyming pattern.
