Cleri Who's Who
help
Four lines rhyming AABB - scansion, rhythm, metre and all that malarkey is as random as-u-like. Oh yes - the featured subject, usually a person, is mentioned in the first line.
Here's a full and frank(ly better) intro by Thos along with some that were made earlier.

Stephen Fry
Is so sly
Whereas, Hugh Laurie
is ever so sorry

Stephen Fry
Hosts QI
So Hugh Laurie
should do Corrie!


Sorry - couldn't resist

Peter Hain
Hoped in vain
He'd concealed his sources
Let's hope this scandal his resignation forces
Kevin Keegan oblig., but not an easy rhyme, I grant you.
Once dated a vegan poetic licence invoked
She wore a cardEEgan poetic license revoked
While he returned to a club for which he had once played and previously ran poetic licence provoked
Meryl Streep
Eeeeep!
Mind you, she's not bad for her age born same year as me
About 80, one would gauge.
[Software] I was expecting a line like "But Eric Sykes"...
Dustin Hoffman
Likes to dress in women's clothes quite often [CdM] Never mind.
While Robin Williams, in "Mrs. Doubtfire"
Wasn't nearly as enthusiastic about his female attire.
Freema Agyeman
This Doctor Who actress's bosom can hardly be described as saggy, man!
Certainly much more shapely than Peter Purves
And someone I'd quite like to service.
Valerie Singleton
Just can't keep her singlet on
But Abner Doubleday
Is not connected to her in any way
Kirsty Wark
Is like a hawk
As with a predatory look
Assuming (usually correctly) that the politician she's interviewing is a lying crook
The Archbishop Dr. Rowan
Has made many frowan
On the other hand, another Rowan, in his role of Mr. Bean
Has caused an equal number to griin
Ianto Jones
Is just one of Dr Who's clones
While the Angelic vampire
Is moonlighting in a male-voice choir
Apologies for cros posting - I would like to print up a poetry book (not to be read out) to use in a play. Details: www.dunx.org/cgi-bin/forum?forum=game00001&bookmark=20080215:170216&before=3&after=3

If responding, answer at Orange, not here. Thanks.

Merlyn Haven't had a round of nepotic ones for a bit.
Rushed in
Whereas Phil (Tuj) Don't you mean incestuous?
First wrote a will.
Juxtapose
Is good at prose
On the other hand, Phil
Has his verse down like a regimented drill
Chalky
Is not in the least bit porky
But Tuj
Likes his fudge.
Irach [phil] aww, thanks
Does not hail from Iraq AFAIK
Whereas Rosie
Around the world is known to mosey actually I'm from the U.S. by way of India, and my name rhymes with "catch".
Software
Likes to share
Especially with Kim
But that's him.
Bigsmith
Enjoys the flavor and texture of pith
On the other hand, Quendalon
Eats flesh 'till dawn.
