Notes About The Poem
Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace 
theorized the theory of Natural Selection
At the same time, yet independently.
 

Charles Darwin Limerick

For five years the illustrious and regal
Charles Darwin, sailed on the Beagle.
A surveying ship,
Notebooks all a’rip,
Soon in battle with Wallace, so legal.
