What is the traditional tone of Limericks?

• Limerick:
- A Kind of funny poem consists of five lines. 
- অর্থাৎ, একধরণের পাঁচ লাইনের মজার ছড়া।
- A popular form of short, funny verse that is often nonsensical and rude.
- Rhyming like a a b b a. 
- The first collections of limericks in English date from about 1820.

• যেহেতু, Limericks হচ্ছে ছোট মজার ছড়া, তাই এর tone হবে Humorous.

• Example of Limerick:
'There was an Old Man who supposed
That the street door was partially closed;
But some very large rats
Ate his coats and his hats,
While that futile Old Gentleman dozed.'
