Description
Jokes wrapped in wordplay and rhyme, limericks date back to the middle ages. Playwright Ranjit Bolt started writing them - both nonsensical and irreverent ones - almost daily and posting them on Facebook to make his friends laugh. Here over 250 are gathered as a playful twenty-first-century 'like' of the hilarious and delightful limerick to brighten up your day, too!
