I don’t think I’ve said this yet, but I’ve been tutoring on Thursdays after school at 826CHI. This week, this kid came in and had to write limericks. She thought it was too hard, but I had a lot of fun. So I figured I’d try some of my own.

Limericks

There once was an author named Frey
Who wrote in a fictional way
But he said it was true,
And, well, wouldn’t you?
Heck, got him a deal with Doubleday.

Ms. Lohan, that crazy young starlet,
Wrote on a wall about Scarlett.
But Johansson just laughed
And said, “If you had half
Of my talent, you’d still be a harlot.”

A poor little kitty named Cy
Was unluckily born with one eye.
Though missing some parts,
He still stole our hearts.
Just look at the cute little guy!

I felt just a little bit cold
When I heard new MacBooks would be sold
Oh, sure they’re neat
And the new specs are sweet
But the one I’ve got’s only months old!
