When I was on holiday, I read a lot. I read some fiction and detective stories, (1) short stories and historical novels. In general, I prefer (2) prose to poetry, as poetry seems a little bit boring to me. However, I like (3) limericks very much. They are quite popular in (4) Britain, in (5) Ireland in particular. A limerick is (6) a kind of humorous little poem. It has only five lines. (7) The first line rhymes with the second, the third with the fourth, and the last one with the first and the second again. (8) The rhyme of a limerick is like this: AABBA. I even wrote (9) a limerick myself.
It s about a holiday at (10) the seaside:
Lay in the sun as long as you can
No doubt, youll get a wonderful tan.
At contests of beauties youll get the first prize
And even your doctor will say in surprise
That he is forever your fan.
