Writing a Limerick

A Limerick is a 5-line poem. The 1st, 2nd, and 5th lines rhyme with each other and are typically 7 or 8 syllables long.  The 3rd and 4th lines rhyme with each other and usually have 5 or 6 syllables in them. 

Example
There once was a man named Paul 
Who fell in a spring in the fall.
would've been a sad thing
if he'd died in the spring 
but he didn't; he died in the fall.
