A friend pointed me at the OEDILF - "The Omnificent English Dictionary In Limerick Form."

Just... wow. One of the better submissions I found in a couple minutes:
Cellini, Benvenuto by SheilaB (Sheila B. Blume)
He was born in the land of linguine—
His talents prodigious, not teeny—
A sculptor and writer,
And also a fighter,
His name's Benvenuto Cellini.

Benvenuto Cellini (ben-vuh-NOO-toh chuh-LEE-nee) (1500–1571) was an Italian Renaissance goldsmith, painter, sculptor, soldier, writer, musician and hell-raiser.

Yeah. I could so waste a lot of time there, browsing and composing.
