The Limerick is supposedly the only form of verse native to the English Language. It is also noted for how easily it lends itself to bawdiness (to put it mildly). As a result, not that many people get to be immortalized via clean Limericks, as they're apparently much harder to compose. My friend, the inimitable Laura Packer, was not feeling well, so I came up with this in her honor:
Laura P. of Kansas City
Has a bad Cold--'tis a pity,
For a Rhinovirus
Is never desirous,
And the results are not pretty.
