Even in these enlightened times, poetry is often considered to be a highfalutin artform written primarily for the enjoyment of an exclusive audience of highbrows. Light and humorous verse such as limericks and clerihews, however, prove that poetry can survive and thrive among a much wider target market than just the literati. Learn the history of these particularly witty and intriguing forms of verse and try your hand at creating your own laugh-out-loud pieces of poetry. Taught by local poet Raymond K. Rugg.
