Limerick Fun!

The Saturday Evening Post’s long-running limerick contest has been discontinued.

A big thank you to all the poets who have sent in their limericks over the years.

Though our limerick contest is done,
That doesn’t mean you can’t have fun:
Keep on writing your own!
(If your muses have flown
You can still read the ones that have won.)

You can enjoy 15 years worth of limerick winners and runners-up here on SaturdayEveningPost.com. And, of course, you don’t need the Post to continue to experience the joy of crafting limericks; “Writing Limericks: A How-To and a History” can give you some background and tips on this particular form of rhyming wordplay.
