Bravo, really its a very good attempt – to say you cannot do it i think is an understatement, this is far better than quite a lot i have read.

hope your entering this or another in the competition if so remember you need to post this link to the competition page.

Thanks. I did not expect such a positive feedback. I think I already posted the link to that page. Though, do I need to post the entire limerick there too?

very good, very challenging! From what I know (a little) about limerick poems, your this poem has made it! See, the 1st,2nd & 5th lines rhyme (for “nun”, the slang will make it rhymes with “man” and “span”… and then the 3rd & 4th lines also rhyme by themselves.
I may come up with one myself, it’s fun and challenging, hahaha.
One day, you may write haiku also, but just for your info, many people count the syllables wrongly, some may sound like 2 syllables but actually 1. I always refer to the counting guide link to check before every posting.

Thanks. Haha, then I will rather never write a haiku as I have problems counting syllables even in my language.

What did you call it? I was very good in literature but never got to grasp the various forms of poetry.

Limerick. Though, I had no idea this form of poetry existed until few recently too. I got the idea here – http://bookstove.com/poetry/limerick-free-competition-closing-date-15th-jan-2011/ .

Hi Michal, I always counted the syllables wrongly too, but can refer to this guide : http://www.wordcalc.com/
You will be surprised by the way the syllables are counted.
However, it’s okay if it’s wrong, as to me, there’s no fixed rules in most things, just be happy, hahaha.
I don’t know when I can write the limerick poem, as not easy right,but you did it quite well.

Good job Michal.

I like the theme too

CHECK COMP PAGE – YOU ARE A WINNER!!!! CONGRATULATIONS

Thanks.
