Wrackspurt (Limerick)

Wrackspurt (Limerick)

A Chapter by Dr. YumnaKay
"

My first limerick officially. I'm almost back from my hiatus and my negative phase. Just trying something different. Probably silly but lol ;P

"
A beautiful mermaid went fishing once
​but was made a bait by a stupid dunce,
bravely not minding her fins,
she hit him right in his shins
and so that wrackspurt met his comeuppance!

Author's Note

Dr. YumnaKay
A limerick is a form of verse, often humorous and sometimes obscene, in five-line, predominantly anapestic meter with a strict rhyme scheme of AABBA, in which the first, second and fifth line rhyme, while the third and fourth lines are shorter and share a different rhyme.

You are welcome dear friend.
I love limericks, too . . . rarely see them these days & yours fits the bill, delivering a sassy kick in the punchline, more important (to me) than technicalities of form *wink! wink!* Your imagination is splashing in this one (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
