A Limerick

To write a limerick, you must have a stanza of 5 lines. The first, second and fifth line are rhyme with each other. While the third and fourth line rhyme with each other. You also need to consider the syllables on each line. Therefore the rhyming sequence is AABBA.

Stubborn Goat

Goat Rescue

There once was an angry little goat,
Who was depressed because he couldn’t float,
He dived right in,
Refusing to swim,
And had to be rescued by a tugboat.
