Yep! A McGonagall/Dumbledore poem (Another of my favorite ships)! 
The Woes of Severus Snape
As Snape was walking in the grounds
Of Hogwarts on a fine spring day
He came across a little lamb
Which bit him twice then ran away.
He didn't seem a bit amused
But couldn't reach his wand in time
To hex the woolly, trainee ewe
Before it made the near tree line.
He walked on, to the placid lake,
(And thought of lamb chops as he did)
When all at once he found he'd been
Accosted by the Giant Squid
But, readers, please do not despair!
I tell you nothing but the truth
- S. Snape's revolting, greasy hair
Had made the man quite waterproof
And so when Squiddy spat him out
He found that he was still bone dry
(Though now he thought he might do well
To take himself back off inside).
Snape's mood had reached an all time low,
He wandered grimly up the stairs
But as his foot gained the top step
He felt it meet with naught but air.
He tumbled down and hit the floor
(But only landed on his face)
And found a pack of Gryffindors
Laughing hard at his disgrace.
Deducting all the points they had
He tried to save his dignity
When Harry's good elf-friend, Dobby,
Appeared before them, arms piled high
With robes Snape had sent out to clean
(Which were now all bright bubble-gum-pink
- While Snape was looking rather green).
Just when he thought he would encounter
Enmity at every turn
He felt the Dark Mark on his arm
Sear with a familiar burn.
Stumping back across the grounds
He passed a most familiar tree
Which flicked him high over the gates
(He landed in some poison ivy).
He picked himself up once again,
(His robes now well and truly torn)
And Apparated to his lord
Wishing he had not been born.
He bowed and scraped and swiftly said,
"At you service, Lord Mouldywarts."
His error inspired unrivalled wrath
In his master, Lord VOLDEMORT.
Uh oh, he thought, and tried to say
He'd had "a really trying day"
But no amount of grovelling
Would keep his hide from being flayed.
Now, readers, you will all agree
That Snape deserves the mess he's in
For reasons I need not explain
Except to say, he's a Slytherin!
