Subject: BS: Dictionary in Limericks
OEDILF (The Omnificent English Dictionary In Limerick Form), is attempting to compile a complete English dictionary in which every definition is in the form of a Limerick. They appear to be getting towards the end of 'A' at the moment. Here's a sample

Random Limerick: analytical

If I were to wax analytical
On matters considered political,
My rhymes, always neat,
Would become obsolete,
Though they'd never cease being quite critical.

By Meg Beagle


Any Mudcat poets care to contribute?
