The poor children of Gin
were so incredibly thin
but the found a bite
that tasted alright
so now they had something for din

Some people went to the bank
to see the ships which sank
but they fell in
I put on a grin
And they don't ever come back

The paper boats I had
were so enormous and bad
so I punched a hole
the size of a mole
and the water fell out - so sad

I once hit a girl in the eye
She fell down the stairs and cried
I said I was sorry
that she had a doosie
but I was laughing on the inside

This is the last of the fun
I can't believe I'm done
There will be more soon
This I promise you
Now watch the setting of the sun

This piece is dedicated to my English B teacher, Ms. F. M-R, who taught us lots of poetry and made me experience what a limerick was. Thanks!
