have three rhythmic beats and rhyme with one another.
• The third and fourth lines have two beats and rhyme with one another.
• They are always light-hearted, humorous poems.

Rhythm & Rhyme• Using more spirited language makes
humorous situations even more humorous
“The Porcupine”By Ogden Nash
Any hound a porcupine nudgesCan’t be blamed for harboring grudges.
I know one hound that laughed all winter
At a porcupine that sat on a splinter.

If you take away the rhythm and rhyme, the humor
vanishes.
Any hound that touches a porcupineCan’t be blamed for holding a grudge
I know one hound that laughed all winter long
At a porcupine that sat on a piece of wood

LimericksThere once was a man with no
hair.He gave everyone quite a scare.
He got some Rogaine,Grew out a mane,
And now he resembles a bear!

Limerick About a BeeI wish that my room had a
floor,I don’t care so much for a
door.But this walking around
Without touching the groundIs getting to be quite a bore.
