Limericks...Cause I Feel Guilty for Forgetting to Wear Green on St. Patrick's Day

So I'm not a poet. I'm just not... But here are some limericks I wrote to go in my portfolio for one of my Creative Writing classes. The teacher didn't like them. She was Irish and said she felt cursed by the entire form of the Limerick... Of course, she didn't like ANYTHING I wrote. Didn't learn much from her... Well anyway... Oh, well, I think Limericks are adorable! And no these aren't naughty so get your mind out of the gutter. Emily May Once in a land far away, Was a girl they called Emily May, She didn’t know why, But she rose very high That one day she floated away. Montserrat Bay In a place they call Montserrat Bay , It is there that I wish I could stay. The water’s so blue You’d think it was new, But in fact it’s been there everyday. The Fairy Queen She’s as light as a bird on the wing. AinĂ© can do anything. She’s been queen of the fae As long as they say The winter’s been turning to spring.
