Love is a many splendored thing, and comes in many forms, shapes and sizes. It's an important theme through out HP. Love can be romantic, but it can also be about friendship, fandom, appreciation, you can love a family member, a kitty, or donuts.
There is no right and wrong, so there are no prizes, but it might be fun to write a limerick about someone or something you love, or about love itself. And what, you ask, is a limerick? Good question. And here's a good answer: 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. So now we know. I once had a fantastic greeting the love of my life I was meeting. True love at first sight! Or should I say bite? Yes I do love this donut I'm eating.   I'm sure you guys can do better than that (although the love for a donut is hard to rival) Put on your rhyming shoes and get your metric feet dancing to your heart song.  --------------------   I'm 1 of the 99.99% W.L.Y.J.

Ah, I happened to have one of these right up my sleeve. I hope it has the right number of metric feet, etc...

QUOTE(leakylurker @ Feb 16 2008, 03:02 PM) I hope it has the right number of metric feet, etc...  lol I read The tutorial : Limericks 101 but I'm still not sure about metric feet (maybe they're a Giant's version of inches? We could ask Hagrid?) Anyhows, inspired by your love limerick I thought I'd share my hommage to something other than food. This limerick is for my honey who's wonderful, sweet and so funny. What else can I say on Valentine's Day : I have the most beautiful bunny.

I think I used this one before but it's the only Valentine one I can think of:
Oh Snape, as you're played by A. Rickman I really can't see you a bad man Your voice is so mellow It turns me to Jello And makes me a silly old girlfan! _______________________________ This Valentine is for my Lily Tho I think she acted quite silly I love the Dark Art But gave her my heart My mistake was really a dilly!

That's a erm great limerick Professor but, maybe it would be cool to write one about someone other than yourself? No one can chop Gurdyroot faster than the most famous Potions Master he's stolen our hearts it's not the Dark Arts just love, but it ends in disaster. -------------------- I'm 1 of the 99.99% W.L.Y.J.
