As a beauty, I’m not a great star.
There are others more handsome by far.
But my face, I don’t mind it,
Because I’m behind it.
‘Tis the folks in the front that I jar.
—Anthony Euwer

There was a young bard of Japan
Whose limericks never would scan.
When they said it was so,
He replied, “Yes, I know,
But I always try to fit as many syllables into the last line as I possibly can.”
—Smart Alec

And one non-limerick:

Higgledy-piggledy
President Jefferson
Gave up the ghost on the
Fourth of July.

So did John Adams, which
Shows that such patriots
Propagandistically
Knew how to die.
—Arthur W. Monks

We would like to wish Anonymous a happy summer vacation. —Ed.
