Getting right to this! I'm running behind as usual.🤗

July 10th: National Clerihew Day and National Pina Colada Day.

Edmund Clerihew Bentley created the whimsical, four-line biographical poem. An English novelist and humorist, Edmund Clerihew Bentley (July 10, 1875 – March 30, 1956), was a 16-year-old student when he thought up the lines for his first ever clerihew.

Sir Humphry Davy Abominated gravy. He lived in the odium Of having discovered sodium

As with most poetry, the Clerihew is defined by a set of rules. It must contain four lines, rhyming couplets of AA/BB, a person’s name in the first line, say something about that person and it should be humorous. It is meant to be a funny poem, of course. You can celebrate it by trying to write one of your own.

A drink to help the creative mind with writing funny poetry.😂

Sending rhyming witty hugs and a tummy tickle for Bixby because he probably couldn't care less about poetry, rhyming or not.🐾🍍🍹💕🌷💕
