About the book
Some poems are deep and profound. These are… not those poems. Instead, they’re limericks—short, sharp bursts of rhyme with just enough nonsense to keep things interesting. If you’re looking for literature that broods in a dark corner, keep walking. But if you’re after a quick laugh wrapped in five lines, you’re in the right place. These limericks will nudge you to discover your own happy little corner of poetry where rhythm dances and words misbehave. Read them fast, read them slow, but read them with a smile.
