What Will I Be When I Grow Up?
What Will I Be When I Grow Up?
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Ev’ry decade I change my career.
The first used my musical ear.
I tried lawyering second,
Till humor scribe beckoned.
What’s next? I just can’t wait to hear.

Thank you so much for plugging the Feminism at its Finest carnival, I really appreciate it. Just think–From that carnival alone, you’ve gained another faithful reader–I always enjoy your humor.
You’re very welcome, Holly. It’s my pleasure. And I really appreciate your enthusiasm for my humor!
Your limericks are so refreshing.
i am forever envious of your precise use of the language… excellent…
Limericks are always fun. The last line is always like the prize in a box of Cracker Jack – lots of anticipation and then the payoff. Thanks!
Good work is hard to find. But if you look herem its easy.
That’s great, I do like a good limerick!
I guess I need to learn humor from the master..
amazing sense of humor you have.
Engaging limerick… about the many hats we wear and faces we put on during our journey of life.
Clever and true for many of us. Good humor, Mad Kane!
Most humorously scribed!
Sounds like we’re hearing what we’re here to hear!
:-) It was a great relief when I finally realized I wasn’t going to grow up at all, & so didn’t need to worry about it.
good fortune in your ever-progressing horizon, Madeleine!
Peace and wonder,

Thanks so much, everyone!
I like your wonderful sense of humor and I love the hat. I am a hat person as well. They give me a sense of style that nothing else can achieve.
