This page is absolutely not serious...

Working as a physicist, I could not avoid touching that domain in verse too:
John from Berkeley looked terribly sad:
"Why, I could mis-subtract, or mis-add,---
     Still, the process of lasing
     Is very amazing,
It's amazing indeed,"  he said.

And as a computer specialist...

There once was a computer named Bess
Who was perfectly cute playing chess.
     Young grandmaster Bill Rhyphe
     Begged "Oh Dear! Be my wife!"
Quite a match should they have made, I guess.

There once was a computer named Apple
That could not digest a big stapple.
     It's much safer, you see,
     To stick to Intel PCs
That never eat stapples like Apple.

Yet another formal experiment in limerick:

There was a silly little llama
Who didn't listen to her mamma.
     When, some later,
     A tiger ate her,
She sighed: "Who could foresee the drama?"

Advertising toothpaste:

Fights decay and freshens breath,
But provokes an early death.

And a moral:

If people don't listen to what you say,
They may have reason to act that way.
