Limerick: Once the Great Grandson of Queen Victoria

Limerick: Once the Great Grandson of Queen Victoria

Once the great grandson* of Victoria
Heir to the throne of tsarist Russia
Saved by “Doc” Rasputin
Killed by Lenin-Stalin
Lo! Heir to Queen Vic’s haemophilia!

    *Tsarevich Alexei of the Romanov royal house.

    LIke the content, but doesnt quite fit the rhyme theme of a limerick. Enjoyed reading though. BG

    Hello Barbara! Thanks very much for enjoying the limerick, though you affirm the content is not for the form. If you can be more specific, I could show the Why not? of it, of course. Normal for the composer to stand by his tune even if "I" may not be able to dance to the lilt. Every good wish. Most welcome! Wignesan
