Re: Limericks. (New).
so the rules have confused me..does not take too much but here they are...
A fresh start for limericks.
Lines 1. 2. And 5. Seven to ten syllables with the same verbal rhythm.
Lines 3. And 4. Five to seven syllables with the same verbal rhythm.
E.g. There was a young lady from Nice
Insisted on bathing in grease
She slid through the house
Tormenting her spouse
So he hid in the oven for peace.
So it is ok for the rules to state line 3 and 4.... 5-7 syllables
yet seems to me there is less than 5..seen many others..or except I am still not getting it..
