Famous Authors' Limerick

By Patrick Davis (c) 2009

There once was a famed author named Tolkien
Of elves and magic much has been spoken
Who can forget the ring of great worth
Forged in Mount Doom of Middle Earth
By Sam and Frodo its power broken

There once was a famed author named Lewis
Who grandly gave Aslan and Lucy to us
Think about what the world would be
Without the land of Narnia to see
Or Turkish Delight to allure us

There once was a famed author named Dickens
Telling of lads who got many lickins’
We cried for little Oliver Twist
And Ebenezer Scrooge we dissed
‘Til he rid Tiny Tim of his sickens
