Limeriddle

A limeriddle is a limerick which contains a riddle. It is a small poem of five lines with a puzzle to be solved.
Here is a example of a limeriddle of unknown origin:
:There once was a naughty girl in Kent
:who invited a young man in her tent
::They spent there some time
::to come on a rhyme
:Guess what poem they did invent!
A limeriddle may have all of the characteristics of a limerick, like humour, and obscenity.
Sometimes the verse meter is not being well respected as would normally be done. Limreriddles are
very popular in high schools, and are regarded less appropriate for middle school or primary school.
