Yeh I know its not a limerick. I have seen a version of this as a true limerick in a book of 'science humor'. Looked for it but can't find. Every version online is this non-limerick version, presented as a limerick. I will update if I find the original.
- Daub 6y agoFound the book! Poem is on p46, together with a cute illustration. Turned out I imagined it was a true limerick after all. But a fun book nonetheless. https://books.google.com.vn/books?id=UGGhM2XKE_0C https://books.google.com.vn/books?id=UGGhM2XKE_0C The book is: Cooper W. A random walk in science. CRC Press; 1973. Surprisingly high citation index (58).
