Let’s Liberate Limericks!

Congratulations, Josh!
A well-deserved win, what with such a proper demonstration of understanding of the style, your punching ly(me)ric(k)s, and your exuberance of spirit in a multi-tiered showing.

Thanks to all entrants in the clearing,
Whose zest and aplomb and deft daring
(Some solemn, some funny
Most bent on the punny)
Gave perk to the just and the leering.

You all made it work.  Thanks for taking the proposition to great heights.

Not least:  thanks to our voters and pool of adjudicators whose declaration of the winner leaves a sweet taste in the mouth of literary palates.
