For the Clerimerick couplets contest by Mark Toney.

A combination of clerihew and limerick forms.

Cristiano Ronaldo. Born in Funchal, Madeira's archipelago. Played for Real Madrid and Man United. Now his flair gets Al Nassr fans excited. Messi is Ronaldo's biggest rival, always vying to give fans an eyeful. With a flick and a trick, both make football look slick, adding awards into their archival. Although Messi has the Ballon d'Or awards record, no one can match the goals Ronaldo has scored. He started as a winger, but now plays as a centre forward. When he misses a chance he's known to scream a swear word!

I like him too. I was shocked to know he actually learned Arabic. I think physically he's in great shape still. The way he jumps up to get those headers into the goal! Amazing tribute!

The most followed man on Instagram. I love that he is loved and celebrated. I do not like football but whenever I sit to watch, I'm totally into it and that's the reason I run away. So I understand why people fancy it. A great piece about a legend. Success!

Does he? What language does he swear in? Haha. Im not a fan of ronaldo or man united. As you know but you did this form very well. Maybe i should take a minute to come up with something. Anyway, silent one you can pull off anything and any form and deliver poems that readers truly enjoy! I love how flawlessly your entire take flows from one to another. Clever and creative and very good bio of Ronaldo too. Messi being his rival and how he now plays as centre! Pleasure reading you! best wishes
