Port, and a few lines of poetry (8)

I believe the answer is:

limerick

I believe this is a double definition.

'port' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a few lines of poetry' is the second definition.

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for limerick that I've seen before include "Verse form - Irish city" , "Humorous poem of 5 lines, and Irish county" , "Five-lined poem" , "Humorous poem from the Treaty City?" , "Irish town; verse form" .)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
