These have gotten me "studying" the origins and history of limericks. As you might know, Ogden Nash sits atop most "Best Limericks" lists. What I just discovered is that he invented his own short-form limerick which he called a "Limmick." It had fewer lines and syllables, a slightly different rhyme-scheme. Here's a sample:

Two nudists of Dover,

Being purple all over,

Were munched by a cow

When mistaken for clover
