Winter snowfall drifts,
softly laying down a cloak,
the world sleeps in white.

Wind moves in the trees,
Birds are singing in the sky,
Flowers start to grow.

A limerick is a form of verse that appeared in England in the early years of the 18th century.A limerick poem is a type of poem where the first, second and fifth lines have the same rhyme and rhythm. The third and fourth lines within a limerick will rhyme too! It's short, punchy, and often funny.
A limerick contains just one stanza, which is a group of lines within a poem, much like a verse within a song. Its rhyming scheme is always AABBA.
Limericks poems are usually fun poems designed with humour, but that doesn't always have to be the case. They are sometimes read quite quickly and the final line is designed to make people laugh.What is the origin of the limerick poems?
It's thought that the name is derived from the city in Ireland, also called Limerick, and originally referred to an old-fashioned parlour game which began with the line "Will you come up to Limerick?"
The first limericks were written in the early 1700s, and they were often used in folk songs. However, the father of the limerick it is considered to be Edward Lear, the famous British poet. Even if he didn’t write the first limerick poem, he popularized it.

HAIKU - The haiku is a Japanese poetic form that consists of three lines, with five in the first line, seven in the second, and five in the third. The haiku developed from the hokku, the opening three lines of a longer poem known as a tanka. The haiku became a separate form of poetry in the 17th century.
