Reversing Verse: Limericks About CLASSIC PALINDROMES, part #3

 This post provides a continuation of previous wordplay collections displayed in December 5, 2020, and January 5, 2021. In those earlier posts, the following classic palindromes (phrases or sentences whose letters are ordered identically when they are read backwards as well as forwards) were described and extolled in verse; contents were as follows:

CURRENT CONTENTS

Please note that, continuing the convention adopted in the previous post , there will be an exclusive correlation between green italicized font and palindromes. But not all of the palindromes displayed within the verses' lines are in the 'classic repertoire'. Some are recent concoctions by the author.

 

17. Mr. Owl ate my metal worm

18. Emil's lime

19. Critique of palindromes; 'To idiot:' 

20. A dim or fond 'No!' from Ida
