How to Submit a Limerick
Short guide for those wishing to write for us
Welcome to “Limericks — Making You Smile One Poem at a Time”! We are a new publication dedicated exclusively to limericks.
What is a limerick?
“A limerick is a five-line poem that consists of a single stanza, an AABBA rhyme scheme, and whose subject is a short, pithy tale or description. Most limericks are comedic, some are downright crude, and nearly all are trivial in nature” — MasterClass.com
Examples of limericks:
“There once was a wonderful star
Who thought she would go very far
Until she fell down
And looked like a clown
She knew she would never go far.” — KidZone
