Terese, I'm sure you noted that a couple of your clerihews are not in dimeter, as no particular meter is required for a clerihew. I have not done many dimetric poems, though I have one over at The Deep End now. Dimeters seem to me especially good for faster-paced pieces, and they can better expose your best phrases.
