Correct Answer

Sample limerick: 'There was a child from Pune, Who tried to dance on the moon. He slipped on a star, And fell very far, Now he sings a sad, broken tune.'

The limerick follows the AABBA rhyme scheme (Pune, moon, tune rhyme; star, far rhyme) and tells a silly story with an unexpected ending.
