Default Poems?


I sneezed a sneeze into the air.
. . It fell to earth I know not where.
But hard and cold were the looks of those
. . In whose direction I had snoze.


There was a young bard from Japan
Whose limericks never would scan.
. . His poems all tend
. . To come to an end
Abruptly.


There was a young lady name Lizst
Whose lips had a curious half-twist.
. . She's turn both her lips
. . Into Moebius strips.
'Til she's kissed you, you haven't been kissed!


A daring young fellow named Crottle
Poured water into a Klein Bottle.
. . When asked, "Do you doubt
. . That some will run out?"
He replied, "No, I don't. .Quite a lot'll."


A girl from the vast Fourth Dimension
Has a sex-life beyond comprehension.
. . With length, width and height
. . she's an utter delight.
With her fourth ... it's too marv'lous to mention.


To a tightrope walker named Zekund
The 'a' due to gravity beckoned.
. . His performance was great
. . At about 9.8
m/sec˛.


Man has pondered
Since time immemorial
Why 1 is the value
Of \text{0!.}

Hello, Soroban,

I like your limericks very much.

But this special one should have 17 syllables and 3 rows only to establish a new form of poetry: limerhaiku.

Greetings EB
