Is the limerick generator free?

Yes — generate limericks for free on this page.

What makes a proper limerick?

Five lines, AABBA rhyme, bouncing anapestic rhythm, and a twist in the last line — the generator keeps all four, which is harder than it looks.

Can it write one about a specific person?

Yes — name, quirks and occasion in, personalized mischief out. The birthday-card upgrade nobody sees coming.

Your call — family-friendly by default, cheekier on request, always on the right side of mean.

Limerick Generator

Create witty and humorous five-line limericks.

Example

Love · Classic

A fellow who fell hard for a maid,
In her presence, his wits were delayed.
When he tried to propose,
He tripped over his toes,
And now all his charm has just frayed!

A fellow once fell for a cat,
Who purred as she sat on the mat.

With a very warm wish,
But she swatted his hand with a spat!

For her snoring was loud—he dismayed!

Met a girl who made his heart tickle.

With Venus and Mars,
Now he's stuck, caught up in love's pickle!
