There once was a nomadic ger-dweller
who had no garage, attic, or cellar.
But what it lacked in space
it made up for in pace
when ger turned to baggage from shelter.

MONGOLIA LIMERICK
There was a young monk from Mongolia
Who loved Buddhism’s peace, but was only a
little bit dismayed
to long for the days –
When Mongols ruled from Okhotsk to Anatolia.

Eger Limerick
There was a cranky old man from Eger who was prone to curse and to swear. He was really a jerk to Mongols and Turks, billing them for medieval fortress repair.

Ulan Bator Limerick
A craftsman from old Ulan Bator made Genghis Khan statues by the score. "Call me a fierce lauder, but he's the best marauder. We haven't marauded well since days of yore."

Limerick of Mongolia
There was a boy from Mongolia
who had a taste for Coca-Col-i-a,
but only sporadically
’cause he lived nomadically
and they won’t ship to: “A Yurt in Mongolia.”

I’m pretty sure it was “Chinggis Square” when I was visiting. I’m not sure whether they changed it for political reasons or because almost everything in the city was named after Chinggis Khan when I was there. If you asked directions, you were likely to get something like, “Walk down to the Chinggis Khan statue, turn left and walk until you get to the corner with Chinggis Khan bank. Take a right and walk down to Chinggis Khan park, etc.”
