A financial limerick from Dr. Goose

This week we asked listeners to send us their haiku about the economy, and you responded in droves. We also got one limerick by a listener calling himself “Dr. Goose.”

The New American Dream

The Smiths of 212 Willow Lane
Thought their mortgage a terrible strain.
They defaulted and then,
moved next door to 210
Where they rent and are solvent a-gain.

We talk to listener David Lefkovits about how he started writing limericks for his blog, Limericks Economiques.
