ostrichofevil Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 Let's write Cosmere-themed limericks! Here's mine: There once was a Mistborn named Vin Who sat upon a pin. Her Pewter she Flared, At the prankster she glared, And Pushed it right back at him. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious Anamaximder Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 There once named a guy called Lightsong, He hated the bright, And so he quipped and partyed all night. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobold King Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) There once named a guy called Lightsong, He hated the bright, And so he quipped and partyed all night. Cute! Though for your education, a limerick must have five lines. The first, second, and fifth lines must all have somewhere between seven and ten syllables, while the third and fourth lines need to have five to seven. And of course, the first, second and fifth lines all have to rhyme, as do the third and fourth lines. As so: There once was a kobold made king Whose friends found him irritating. Now he was such a dunce That they loathed him at once And laughed when he choked on a ring. Edited August 27, 2015 by Kobold King 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WayneSpren Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) There once was a city on Sel With gods quite exceedingly swell Till Odium came And the Shards he did maim And thus fair Elantris then fell. I know Aona and Skai were splintered, but I didn't realize it would make Elantris fall a second time. Good to know. There once was a Forger named Shai. She really didn't want to die. She was imprisoned in a boring prison she escaped because of a drunk guy. Edited August 30, 2015 by WayneSpren 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingsdaughter613 Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) BoM spoilers: Spoiler There is a Survivor, Kelsier Also the Sovereign it's claimed He's Fullborn I hear His symbol's the spear As Lord of the mists he's proclaimed! There was a man Kelsier The greatest thief of the day Dearly was he sought Until he was caught Mistborn he then became! There was a Mistborn Kelsier He said, 'Time the nobles did pay.' He gave up his life To convince us to fight But Survived as a Cognitive Shade! There was a ghost Kelsier He held Preservation one day Then refused to die Put a spike through his eye Survived to return as they say There was a Survivor, Kelsier To the South he wandered one day Seeing their need Became their king Aquired Sovereign as a name There is a person Kelsier The Cosmere he wanders, away But if we are need Or coming to grief He'll return to save Scadrial's day! (First stanza repeats) Note that you have to use the inworld pronunciation for the limerick to work. This is supposed to be a jump rope poem that kids sing once this is better known. (No, the various Churches aren't thrilled. Yes, Kell thinks it's awesome.) Each jumper does one stanza, the next jumping in at the last word of the last line.
