I laughed at a bunch of poems today - luckily for their authors, these were meant to be funny and/or clever (at the very least 'smile-inducing'). We don't tend to think of limericks as belonging to the class of 'true-poetry', whatever that means. But as I was giggling at these, I thought to myself "this is the most fun I've ever had reading poetry! Ever!"
My favorite one so far:
See that lighthouse beam in the sky
That guides yonder ships going by?
My friend shines that beam;
She's living her dream.
I'm in grad school. I still don't know why.
Here is where I was reading:
