Okay, so lately I've been into writing quick Limerick's, thats a poem. Basically it is a poem with 5 lines. The first two lines have 8 syllables and the last word must rhyme, the 3rd and 4th lines are 5 syllables and the last word has to rhyme and the 5th and last line is again 8 syllables and the last word has to rhyme with the last word of the first 2 lines.
Does that make any sense? Well, if not, let me explain a bit better.
Okay, here's the poem:
Tuesday Night Softball Limerick
Tonight I have a softball game,
I hope I will have perfect aim.
i need a good bat,
and pitches not flat.
or i will hang my head in shame.
Line 1: to-night i have a soft-ball game (8)
Line 2: i hope i have per-fect aim (8)
game and aim rhyme
Line 3: i need a good bat (5)
Line 4: and pitch-es not flat. (5)
bat and flat rhyme
Line 5: or i will hang my head in shame (8)
shame rhymes with game and aim.
