Two Limericks

Presented below are two Limerick poems*. A 'limerick' is a style of poetry, with five lines and a strict rhyme scheme AABBA. These poems generally have a humorous intent. The first, second and fifth lines are usually longer than the third and fourth. 

This is my first attempt towards writing Limerick poems. I hope you will like them! Corrections and suggestions are most welcome!!

  

  Once an old lady had a chubby tom cat

It slept all day curled up on a mat

At work, lazily it groaned

When nudged, it moaned

And would cry ‘just last year I killed a rat!’

  

There lived a woman who loved craft

In cutting, her hands were too deft

Once, she folded papers in style

‘Ohhh! That was my office file’

Cried her man! Banging on her head, a shaft!
