Limerick Rhyme Scheme

The rhyme scheme of a limerick is how the pattern of the words at the end of each line rhyme. In a limerick, the rhyme scheme is AABBA. It means that the first, second, and fifth lines rhyme, and the third and fourth lines rhyme.

For example:

• Lou (A)
• shoe (A)
• tight (B)
• night (B)
• too (A) 

There once was a cat named Lou,

Who loved to sleep in a shoe.

He curled up so tight,

All day and all night,

And dreamed of chasing birds too!
