250 Recent (And Overly Decent?) Limericks
ISBN: 9780595392186 / Angielski / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "250 Recent (And Overly Decent?) Limericks" is an evidently protracted attempt. The attempt is toward something like formal excellence. The form-in-question is (let's say) valid English, whereas the limerick form remains merely adventitious. Here beneath are a couple of sample limericks-and don't they manage to sweep along somewhat ridiculously? HELLO Hello and good-bye, little world of seeming to stay boyed and girled in manners and fashions whose finite new passions invite each ripe dream to seem swirled. GUITARS Guitars were restrumming themselves while waiting for happier shelves than...

For centuries, the Japanese haiku has been one of the world's most dazzling poetic forms.

Liberating the Limerick: 230 Irresistible Classics
ISBN: 9780761833994 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In his introduction to Liberating the Limerick, Ernest Lefever, founding president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, says that many of the 230 "irresistible classics" in the book "reflect facets of truth and virtue wrapped in the garments of irony and caricature." Contrary to the widespread myth, these verses lay bare "the foibles of the human drama with wit and irony" and without slithering into the gutter. The book is enriched by fifteen New Yorker cartoons. Read the recent Washington Times review.

Introduction Jonathan Dean When I first set out to find a limerick Book, I could find not a one, anywhere I'd look. So then I sat to think, And I put pen to ink, Now here's a book; after the trouble I took.: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~: Limericks are a form of poem that have intrigued me since I was first introduced to the form in a third grade class in 1982 at Garrison Elementary School, Lewis County, Kentucky, USA. My teacher, Ms. Skaggs, gave our class an assignment to write a limerick. I wrote several limericks that day in class, which I have since lost; though I never lost my fascination...
