    Six is a respectable start. More would be better though.

    If only I knew how to rhyme.
    If only I could find the time.
    And if I had something to say,
    I'd enter your poetry play.

    Since I don't, I'm leaving real quick.
    What rhymes with Limerick?

    I am hopelessly limerick impaired, but what a fun idea for a contest!
