Limerick
Irish soldiers on returning from war to their home town of Limerick began reciting a line of poetry to kill the time.
One by one each soldier added a line to the verse which they affectionately called The Limerick.
Edward Lear introduced the Limerick to English Poetry .
The basic rule is that lines 1, 2 and 5 rhyme, while lines 3 and 4 rhyme
Denise
By Paul Mc Cann
There was a young girl called Denise ,
She lived all her life on the streets .
In need of a prayer .
Her pockets were bare .
She died in the arms of a priest
