b) Today's Offering (Aug 11, 2024): 

poetry lyrics:/ Irma, scowling, "For what it is worth,/ I've been humorless,
 gravely, since birth./ Lacking laughter, this bunny/ Deems punchlines unfunny./
 Jokes and wordplay, I'd savor a dearth./ I judge few things more worthless than mirth."

The collections "Defining Opinions", on the topic-based blog "Edifying Nonsense" shows sequential verses with similar format published at  OEDILF (the online Omnificent English Dictionary in Limerick Form).
