The fog comes A
on little cat feet. B
It sits looking C
over harbor and city D

and then moves on. F

 Limerick- poem consists of five lines with the rhyme scheme “AABBA”
Examples: There was once a child in Spain.
Who loved to play in the rain.
One day he tripped,
And broke his hip,
Now he is in serious pain.
 There once was a fly on the wall,
I wonder why didn't it fall.
Because its feet stuck,
Or was it just luck,
Or does gravity miss things so small?

Hickory dickory dock.

The mouse ran up the clock.
The clock struck one,
And down he run.
Hickory dickory dock.
