Eight Summarizing Limericks.
There once was a girl named Alice
Who for her normal life held great malice
She fell down a hole
And now her new goal
Is to defeat the queen who is quite callous.
-----
The Atreides family lived cross the sands
Grew fearful of enemy hands
Worms terrorize beneath
And swords are unsheathed
As families fight for their stands.
---
There once was a thane of Cawdor
Who hated his friend with ardor
He was scared by some witches
And wanting more riches
He decided to commit mur-dor.
---
There once was a king, not a greaser
Who employed many a gieser
His men did betray
And stabbed all away
And he said "Et tu, Brute, then fall Caesar."
---
There once were a pair in Verona
Of regal birth and high persona
They fell in love madly,
But things ended badly.
And now they're entombed in the stone-a.
----
There once was a ship called the Heart of Gold
Who onboard had a crew quite bold
An alien, two humanoids
One paranoid android
Crossing the galaxy and making tales told.
---
There once was a young Dutch prince
Whose father did try to convince
To murder his brother
Then one death after the other
Now almost all characters are missed.
---
There once was a young boy named Pan
The youngest in all of the land
He would steal away kids
And growing up he forbid
And he may have tried to eat hands.
