Here's why:
* Five lines: Limericks always have five lines.
* Rhyme scheme: Limericks follow the rhyme scheme AABBA. In this case, "be" rhymes with "see," and "nice" rhymes with "twice."
* Humorous: Limericks are often humorous, and this poem has a playful tone.
While the poem is short and might not be the most sophisticated limerick, it fits the basic structure and characteristics.
