What are you missing? The Concise Oxford Dictionary defines a limerick as a humorous or comic form of five-line stanza with a rhyme-scheme A-A-B-B-A (said to be from the chorus Will you come up to Limerick?) sung between improvised verses at a gathering. This book of limericks has the suggested last lines printed as an index at the back, and it is hoped that friends and family can enjoy each others attempts at providing the final line quip. This quip could be a clever bit of repartee or a witty turn of the original subject into an absurdity. The reader supplies his or her original line (without peeking at the index), and in signing their effort, the volume then becomes an interesting and amusing autograph album. You might want to enjoy a few lemonades first and use a pencil.
