Limerick Poems

Last class we learned about limerick poems. In class we were going to learn
about 5 different poems, the limerick poem was the last one. There are some rules
to making a limerick poem: there is 5lines, the first, second and fifth line
rhyme and follow a 3beat pattern, the third and the fourth line rhyme and follow
a 2beat pattern. We had to draw a cartoon character on the paper then write our
poem so it looks like it is in the background. Here is an example that i wrote!:

A Zebra Named Raffy

There once was a zebra named Raffy,

Who had a laffy taffy,

He lived with a raccoon,

And was invaded by a baboon,

Got sick and hired a maid named Shaffy!
