Limericks to Kate
A collection of poems sent to my daughter, Katie, at the University of Michigan
See other poems: Birthday | Golf | Miscellaneous | Wedding


Two children had we in our marriage
Both of whom we could disparage.
While one lived in crud,
The other chewed cud
Thank God for the other miscarriage

.

There once was a coed named Kate
Who couldn't get loyalties straight.
While watching a game
It was clearly a shame... 
She was cheering for Blue and not State?

Well her parents made it clear to Ms Kate,
"You just never cheer against State.
Because if you do,
May a curse fall on you
And your credit card evac-u-ate."

A girl named kfanders we knew
Spent all her dad's money, its true
When she spent all he had
He resigned as her Dad
And now she's Ann Arbor's "Big Blue."

There once was an Anderson, Kate
Who scoffed at her ancestry great.
When little she knew
That her real daddy true
Was a milkman from Washington State.

There once was a coed named Kate
Who was soon to become grad-u-ate.
Said she, "I might flunk
Just to be with my hunk."
Said her Dad, "Then you pay the freight."

A coed named Katie F. A.
Was shot around sunrise one day.
She met her quick doom
For booking a room
For her parents at the YMCA.
