Excellent comments Leanne and Erthona!
You really put the 'creative' in 'creative reply'!
Mark: The poetic form is called a "trilim".
It's a composite of three consecutive 'lim' forms.
The 'limerick' is a member of the same family of poetic
forms derived from 'lim's; but the 'trilim' is not a 'limerick'
(and vise versa). They are distinctly separate branches
of the 'lim' family tree.
