Family Business
\nBy Madeleine Begun Kane<\/p>\n

A woman who worked for her dad
\nSure needed that job really bad.
\nThough she did have a skill,
\nMost employers don’t thrill
\nAt a waitress who’s mastered her Strad.<\/p>\n

Please feel free to write your own limerick using the same first line and post it in my comments. And if you\u2019re on Facebook<\/a>, I hope you\u2019ll join my friends in that same activity in my Limerick-Offs.<\/p>\n
