Thank you all for your contest entries. I enjoyed them all. Some poems did not place if they were not new poems, syllable counts off by more than one line, or not written as a limerick. Poems with exact rhymes and syllable counts placed higher. Syllable counts should never be over 10 in lines, 1, 2 & 5.
There has been a lot of discussion of limerick writing and there are many variations. For my contests however it was clearly stated to have exact rhymes and syllable counts to match in lines 1,2 & 5. The same rules for lines 3 & 4.
Congratulations to the winners. I will be visiting your poems soon.
