He smiled as she cuddled in closer
He was no loser, she was a doozer;
He had hands everywhere
But she just didn't care,

(In a limerick the metre or beats in the 1st, 2nd and 4th lines should be similar, 3rd & 4th shorter, adding another slant to the story... excuse the interference again folks )

A limo might make you a superstar.

New 1st line..

Here is an example of a limerick:

His wife helped him up
She gave him drink from a cup
And said what a silly old B

Better than in the doldrums;
Play around with words
Take time to watch the birds,
Strutting around wriggling their bums. (oops)
