ARE YOU GOOD AT RHYMING?

(Correct the wrong rhymes)

(Limericks)


By Josie Whitehead

Are You Good at Rhyming?

A stupid old woman from Bath

Said:  ‘Today I won’t tread on the pavement,’

       So she walked on the road

       And she trod on a frog -

And it was then that she started to laugh.

 

A man with a long, pointed nose

Said, I’m sure that you all will agree

       That we all should sleep more

        And should try not to dream.

Was he right?  Ah well - nobody knows!.  

 

Though this  poem’s a terrible mess

I can rhyme as I’m sure you will know

       But, what about you -

       Well, can you rhyme also?

I’m quite sure that you’re all shouting 'yes'.

Answers:

 

1 – Bath – path    2 – road – toad

2 -  mess – guess  3 – you - too

3 – nose – suppose  2 – more - snore
