The Book of Nonsense limerick
“There was an Old Man with a beard,Who said, 'It is just as I feared!
Two Owls and a Hen,Four Larks and a Wren,
Have all built their nests in my beard!'
St Patrick’s Day Limerick
A man, while drinking Light Bud,Crashed his car with a sickening thud,
The car that he hit,Had a warlock in it,
now he lives as a frog in the mud.
