21. "The Limerick Is Furtive And Mean..."
    From the Maigue poets to ogden nash, witty wordsmiths have delighted in composing the oftrisqu© five-line verses. Introductory article.  
    http://www.smithsonianmag.si.edu/smithsonian/issues02/sep02/limericks.html
    
    Extractions: "Hickory, dickory, dock, a mouse ran up the clock...." So vivid is the imagery and so strong the rhyme and meter that even the most poetically impaired can supply the last lines to this charming bit of doggerel. It has enthralled children since its publication in 1744. Like a lot of well-remembered poetry, it is a limerick. Limericks are essentially word puzzles in light verse, more often than not infused with sexual innuendo. Nobody wrote wittier ones than Ogden Nash, whose ingenious poetic playfulness complemented the form. Many know his "I would live all my life in nonchalance and insouciance, were it not for making a living, which is rather a nouciance." The five-line verse probably originated from the limerick-makers of Croom, known as the Maigue poets, who flourished in the 18th century. They were schoolteachers, priests and self-styled persons of letters, living within 20 miles of this southwestern Irish village. Their gatherings at inns and taverns were called poets courts, to which new members were invited by "warrants" to drink, recite, and often sing, their verses. The verse form that the Maigue poets helped foster became an energetic dimension of the Irish cultural landscape. Centuries before step-dancing swept across our stages, sailors from around the world landed in Cork and made the short journey north to the taverns of Limerick. And while there's no concrete evidence to suggest how the limerick spread from continent to continent, the following explanation is offered by an anonymous bard:

    Extractions: Ogden Nash is one of the few American humorous poets. He became very famous during his life for his funny work. His many poems are loved by both children and adults. I hope that after you read this you will like his poetry as much as I did. (Frederic) Ogden Nash was born in Rye, New York, on August 19, 1902 . He went to a school in Newport, Rhode Island. Later he attended Harvard University for one year but left because of family financial problems. He decided to get a job. He became a teacher at his old school in Rhode Island, which was called St. George's School, but quit because of stress from his fourteen-year-old students. Ogden Nash then became a salesman, then an adviser, then an editorial staff worker. Then he became a famous poet. He got to be on radio and television. He died on May 19, 1971,in Baltimore, Maryland. Ogden Nash's strongest style in his writing was humor, but he had many others. One of his techniques was to write some of his lines of uneven lengths. He also misspelled and made up words to make them rhyme and sound humorous, which was strange since he went to Harvard, a very serious school. He often wrote about animals, which I like. It makes poems more interesting. Here is a poem of his: The Eel
