Clerihews

(Clerihews are short four line verses that start in the first line with a person’s name and then the remaining lines provide info about the person in a humorous fashion. The rhyme scheme is supposed to be AABB and the second one below stretches that rule. )

Pete Best
After getting kicked out could attest
How being a former Beatles drummer
Was a serious career bummer

King Charles
Certainly was
Without debating
England’s longest gentleman in waiting

Boutros Boutros Ghali
The former U.N. head, by golly
Would never cheer
On hearing “Is there an echo in here?”
