Some poetry for WashU (late night musings)

Colleges & Universities Washington University in St. Louis

<p>When I was only a junior in high school,
with enough AP classes to make me a fool,
I made my college list, nine school tops,
some short reaches, some long gallops–</p>

<p>Happily for me in April’s time,
I found reason to sing and to rhyme,
For WUSTL sent me one endearing letter
that said “You’re great! (But we’ll make you better!)”</p>

<p>Oh WashU, I know that I am not perfect,
I only have a 4.4, I’m top scholar in the district,
I can only juggle basketballs while pH-ing buffers,
I only wanted to improve, to make myself tougher.</p>

<p>When I visited you, I saw the picture was true.
A character of serenity, tranquility, such lovely hue.
Brookings greeted me with two long arms,
but it was South 40 that did it, that hidden charm!</p>

<p>I’m so glad you accepted my love, my WUSTL,
Let’s make this commitment a tango-like bustle,
Four years of romance, high strung adventure,
Full of knowledge and neverending ventures!</p>
