We might forget something, but Google never does.


Lots of info on non-rhyming limericks, ; those with more than 5 lines, etc.  Just google 'limerick 9; or (as I did) the first line of the verse Alan provided...


But here's the verse: 


     A 
young meter-reader named Peter
  
     While 
looking around for a meter
     By a leak struck a 
light,
     Then he rose out of sight.
  
   And as anyone who knows anything about poetry can 
plainly see, the 
     explosion also 
destroyed the meter. 


I suggest a limerick-fest at the next DCHAS social event....
