Here is my effort. :-)
Water
Whenever I go in the sea,
A sensation comes over me.
The drowning child,
Events so wild,
Remembering it isn't for me.

I have copied the following from the intro to another current limerick competition.
''a limerick, a humorous poem consisting of five lines. Normally, the first, second, and fifth lines must have seven to ten syllables while rhyming and having the same verbal rhythm. The third and fourth lines only have to have five to seven syllables, and have to rhyme with each other and have the same rhythm,''
Do you want me to extend the deadline to allow you to revise some of the entries?

Pleasures plead secret in
Opium lore,
Parading deeper than even
Pride can know,
Yet sloth, sloth sleeps well.

I think my three acrostic limenick are always not correct : not humorous poem (too serious) and the length of the verses are not correct too! I am learning about, then anyway, I'll try to write two others in the deadline, don't worry for me!
Nevertheless, very nice and interesting comp!!!

TANGO
There was this man called Jango
And he loved to dance tango
Nevermind if offbeat
Got to feel the heat
Oozing, never to let go

SPACE
Space exploration was the game
Putting the nation in fame
Another crowning glory
Carved in US history
Except it was a Chinese name

TRUTH
Telltale signs of deceit and lies
Revealed through his rolling eyes
Under pain from penetration
The guy lost concentration
He jumped from the sky

There was this man from Virginia
Who grew up with dyslexia
Evolving with a kind of art
Equivalent to his sick body part
Thank God, he has no amnesia

CRAZY WOMAN
Call her crazy, call her what you want
Remember your promise not to recant
Antagonizing moments may break her heart
Zany actions of yours could hurt
Yet, she pleases you whatever you want
Woman of elegance and astounding beauty
Orgasmic contortions still renders her pretty
Making love is a ride on heaven's wheel
All night long you drive her crazy in hell
Non-stop sipping of nectars, yet still thirsty...
Call her crazy, call her what you want

Making love is a ride on heaven's wheel
All night long you drive her crazy in hell
Non-stop sipping of nectars, yet still thirsty...
