A dozen, a gross, and a score,
Plus three times the square root of four,
Divided by seven,
Plus five times eleven,
Equals nine squared plus zero, no more.

I know I have to change my initials then ....

However this limeric is oldie .

I cannot take credit for it. That ubiqutous Anon wrote it.
 
I'll try one if everybody promises not to laugh:

A grand, a fin and a C
Less ten to the power three
Divided by a fin
Less another fin
Equals four squared, whoopee!

I'm sure I've posted these before . . .


A mathematician named Crottle
Poured water into a Klein bottle.
. . When asked, "Do you doubt
. . That some will run out?"
He replied, "No, I don't. Quite a lot'll."


To a tightrope walker named Zekund
The "a" due to gravity beckoned.
. . His performance was great
. . At about 9.8

There was a young lady named List
Whose mouth had a funny half-twist.
. . She'd turned both her lips
. . Into Moebius strips.
'Til she's kissed you, you haven't been kissed.


A girl from the vast Fourth Dimension
Has a sex life beyond comprehension.
. . With length, width and height
. . She's an utter delight.
With her fourth ... it's too marv'lous to mention!


And one I didn't write, but I love it dearly:

There was a young bard from Japan
Whose limericks never would scan.
. . His poems all tend
. . To come to an end
Abruptly.

 
There once was a pretty young lass
Standing in water up to her knees
This poem does not rhyme yet
But wait till the tide comes in !
 
There was a young lady named Kite

Whose speed was much faster than light.

She left home one day

In a relative way

And returned on the previous night.
 
A few of my favorites:

Limerick

An undergrad from Trinity
Computed the square of infinity
But so great were the digits
That he got the figits
And turned from the maths to divinity

Something that's not a limerick

When hydrogen played oxygen
and the game had just begun
Hydrogen racked up two fast points
While oxygen had none

Then oxygen scored a single goal
and thus it did remain
Hydrogen 2 Oxygen 1
Called off because of rain
