Make hay while the sun shines.(Very serious limerick)
There was a lot of people in jail
Many said they would never do well
They broke out one day
Just to make hay
Now the farmer thinks they are swell

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

It has the poetential for seriousness,
but you are a very silly man (said with the greatest love), and the humour shines through.
Excellent limerick form.
