A limerick is a five-line poem with rhyming scheme of AABBA.
Most limericks are intended to be humorous, suggestive or silly in nature. However, some modern limericks have satire in them.
This is the limerick created by a teen-ager on the ‘trumpeter’ as part of learning language art.
LIMERICK ON TRUMPETER
Trumpeter ruler made rationalists bite dust
Then blew up the dust to cover up power-lust
Farmers said don't blow trumpet on our flour
It will choke you to show the the back door
He, however, hired trumpeters to create a din unjust
