Having closed Part One of this thread
we will now post in here instead
please feel free to quote
the things that we wrote
or refer to the things that we said.

In case you missed the tutorial, this is a limerick:
QUOTE(Lorelei du Lac @ Feb 1 2007, 10:14 PM) *
To be a Limerick, a verse MUST have:

Five lines

Lines one, two, and five MUST each have exactly three metric feet

Lines three and four MUST each have exactly two metric feet

Lines one, two, and five MUST rhyme

Lines three and four MUST rhyme

Any nonsense poem that lacks five lines, thirteen metric feet, or the aabba rhyme pattern is simply not a Limerick. It might be a sing-song or a la-de-da, but it's not a Limerick.


Happy posting ... have fun smile.gif May your verses be inspired biggrin.gif

im terrible at writing a limerick,
the words in my head dont seem to stick,
so i'll have a tea,
or watch some tv,
and then i'll get right back on to it.

howzat?

It's good, Richard!

I want to proclaim admiration for Ron
Whom I think is a number one
He's kind and brave
His friends he will save
And his story will go on.

I wanted to write a little appreciation piece for Ron because I think he's a great character who gets bashed too much. I'll write one for Ginny later.

Yeah, Ron sometimes gets given a hard time unsure.gif

Ron Weasley's a really great guy
he started off poor and quite shy
he's been a true friend
from start through to end
he's not perfect but neither am I.

biggrin.gif Yeah Part Two already .. there were 48 pages of Limericks in the previous thread lol. That's kind of huge for a thread cool.gif

This isnt The Search For John Gissing
I'd been wondering if Bibs was missing
but she has been found
and is hanging round
writing new rocking rhymes we're not dissing.

Yay limericks! This thread will never die!!! smile.gif

Great limericks so far everyone!! I came up with a quick one, just so I'd have one in Part 2:

In Gringotts Bank you can store
Galleons, Sickles, and more
Rare cups or a sword,
All you can afford,
Unless you're a Weasley and poor.


--------------------

"You understand him, I'm sure, Harry?" said Dumbledore.
"Yes, of course," said Harry. "Why can't Ogden--?"
But as his eyes found the dead snake on the door again, he suddenly understood.

this is brilliant, although i find the last line slightly tragic.

Thanks ByRichard! I think the Weasleys actually did have a vault at Gringotts. Wasn't it like almost empty?? Well, money isn't everything (but it's nice!)
