I can't resist:

        A one-l lama is a priest,
        A two-l llama is a beast,
        But I'll bet you a silk pyjama
        There isn't any three-l lllama.

PS: When I first saw this poem, it was accompanied by a claim (in a
    footnote) that a three-l lllama is a substantial conflagration.
