Three Limericks

There was a young girl in Japan
Whose limericks never would scan.
When someone asked why,
She said with a sigh,
"It's because I always attempt to
get as many words into the last
line as I possibly can."

Another young poet in China
Had a feeling for rhythm much fina.
His limericks tend
to come to an end
Suddenly.

***

There was a young lady of Crewe
Whose limericks stopped at line two.
