The Four Ghosts: A Children's Limerick (Inspired from Pac-Man)

There once was a ghost named Inky,
Who knew a red ghost named Blinky.
Forced to chase,
Pac-Man the ace,
Who was always too fast and sneaky.

Then there came Pinky and Clyde,
Two ghosts who joined their side.
Weavin' and bobbin',
Pac-Man a chompin,
Who saw the ghosts, then ran to hide.

Then Pac-Man saw a big old dot,
In his tummy, he knew that'd hit the spot.
He ate with a slurp,
And gave out a burp,
Powerful and stronger, he had a great thought.

Pac-Man had turned the tables,
With a, “Waka Waka.” he was now enabled.
The Ghosts ran away,
As he kept them at bay,
Pac-Man had cleared the table.
