Tim Smith Poet Limerick

International Limerick Day

Limericks be flyin' this fine St. Paddy's day
Trading of barbs is welcomed and quite okay

There once a man from County Kerry
Who was all sorts of drunk and pretty merry
He put on a wig
and danced a fun jig
Til he got picked up by a fellow named Jerry
