From PBSkids.org here is a handy definition of a limerick in case anyone needs a reminder. I did. ;-) Should be fun. jon LIMERICKS are poems with five lines with a special beat and rhyming pattern: Lines 1, 2 and 5 have 9 beats and the last words rhyme. Lines 3 and 4 have 6 beats and rhyme with each other.
