| There was a man from Leicester
Whose brother kept telling him he was from Chester
Brother said dad was a visiting carpet salesman
So just look at the Talisman
It clearly states Chester not Leicester
It clearly states Chester not Leicester |

| Unfortunately your effort didn't obey the Limerick rules, Goldie:
" A limerick is a form of poetry in five-line meter with a strict rhyme scheme (AABBA), which is sometimes obscene with humorous intent. The third and fourth lines are usually shorter than the other three. The following example is a limerick of unknown origin:
The limerick packs laughs anatomical Into space that is quite economical. But the good ones I've seen So seldom are clean And the clean ones so seldom are comical. |
