I have a pal who has been doing limericks for more than 50 years. Yeah..he's really old. Anyway..he's very fond of 'em and writes his own. I am not in his league except as an appreciator of the art form.
You have described the form accurately. My friend, however, adds that a limerick, to be a true one, -must- also contain a big word, a dirty word and a pun.
I tried to come up with a bucket involved lass from Nantucket without 'ass' and following my friend's form. No luck so far, but if I do get there, I'll get back to you on it.
