Limericks

Limericks are special poems that have five lines. They are usually funny.

If you clap the rhythm of a limerick, there are:

• three claps for the first line,
• three claps for the second line,
• two claps for the third line,
• two claps for the fourth line, and
• three claps for the fifth line.

The first, second and fifth lines rhyme with one another. The third and fourth lines rhyme with each other, but not with the other three.

Below is a limerick. The fourth line is missing. Think of a line to fill in the gap.

There once was a man who said "Look!"

Someone's stolen my library book

I had it just here
