    Carol, I believe you tweaked this one a bit since I first saw it in my contest box? That was wonderful that you got the last two lines to completely rhyme. thanks so much for that and BIG congrats. I love Joan Rivers and this was clever. luv, Andrea

    Joan was the most beautiful comedian of my life time. And she was very funny and still is. I don't realy want her face to crack. She's one of those who should have died young. But have her as she is today is just fine with me. She's like the beautiful wife that just grew old. But I will alway remember the old joan.

    Question: I have seen a number of poets here on Soup using: can not.... Here we use : cannot (one word). Is it a USA thing? I remember Joan Rivers from TV and some later shots... ;-) Nice Clerihew, Carol. Love, Su

    lol, had a chuckle at this one - she used to be on English TV a lot, but, sadly, not nowadays (I've seen recent pics of her, though)
