I don’t know the Russian much either.
Eight words, then I take a breather. That message that came From a gal I can’t name, Warn’t clear to me right away neither. It’s obsolete now. I am sure It was penned by a lady quite pure. Five kudos to thank Are now in your bank. Enjoy them, though they’re not from her. The puzzle requires extrospection And seeing the near intersection Of letters Methodiac Unclear to a Univac That humans might read on reflection. I had some small fun doing this. It was nearly as good as a kiss. Alas for the gal Who wanted a pal She never knew. Bye little sis. |
There’s a long wiki link I can’t shorten that spoils the forMatt here.
In a brint shop the ds and the bs Are as dab as the qs and the ps. You must be an ace With the California case Or the tybos will somehow disquease |
I once took a nap in my car
And dreamt of Dasein in a jar, ....But seeing that this ....Was all meaningless, I staggered alone to the bar. |
Not a limerick here, but yours is cute. I did find this on a search engine called Duckduckgo that doesn't store your searches. If it's in a jar, they can get it for you.

Noun
curmudgeonliness 1. The state or condition of being curmudgeonly. Dear Jayne, though it may seem absurd, “Curmudgeonliness” is a word. Is the spat between Cantor And Tice a sweet rant, or A melody sweeter unheard? |
Ann, I entirely agree that limericks, to be worthwhile, must follow strict rules. However:
XxxxSaid the Poet, “im sadly aware that you dont like my limericks but be fair xxxxxxi was raised on free verse so i hate rhymes and to make matters worse xxone mans meter is another mans poison” |
The bellows of Cantor and Tice
Are cacophonous pains in the ice. At the end of the day Tice has just this to say, It’s nice to be nicer than nice. Good one, Brian. |
I’m ghostwriting Cantor today.
His mind must be aching to lay Out limericks so strong We’ll break into song And dance willy-nilly, what hey! |
A limerick’s like a villanelle:
Short on thought, it requires “sell”. Easy to do it. Easy to screw it. Much harder to do it quite well. |
Allen, you may say writing a limerick is easy, but you belie that claim by making your first two lines tetrameter instead of trimeter. They are indeed not technically all that difficult to write, but you don't have a chance of doing it "quite well" unless you honor the technical aspects. Reach for more anapests, and count your beats.
