Grade 9 Poetry Unit - Mr. Sylvain's Classroom

Limericks are five-line poems that use rhythm and rhyme. Line 1, 2, and 5 are longer and end in rhyming words. Limericks are short poems not meant to be taken seriously. They consist of five lines with rhyme scheme AABBA. The pattern of syllable stresses is not set in stone, but it is generally anapestic (unstressed, unstressed, stressed).
