Casper the Friendly Ghost

Casper the Friendly Ghost 
was youthful and wanted one thing the most;
each show he searched to find and make friends.
kids always ran; maybe the wispy can't plan solid ends.

Week after week after week, I would watch as a kid and hope this is the Sat. he'll make a friend. Guess Casper is still trying. Poor dude. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

This shadowy ghost is so friendly and pleasing, though still a ghost. Great Clerihew. It seems everyone has come up with different cartoon characters. All the Best dear Cay Cay

Hi, Valsa - I've seen more Popeyes, I think, than any other character otherwise, yes, the variety is appealing, and they are fun to both write and read. All Casper ever wanted was a friend! Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Kim, I am flustered that I can't remember the song for Casper, refuses to come to me. BAD SONG. Thanks for commenting. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Your comments are comments I seem to actually FEEL, hard to explain why they seem animated, must be a natural gift you have. Thanks, Paige. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

I love how playful this is! You really capture Casper’s friendly, innocent vibe, and the rhyme adds a fun, storybook feel. The twist that kids run from him makes it cute and relatable.

Nice one ! I always felt so sorry for him when a kid. Really wanted to hug him myself. going to be challenging for Tania to assess this contest ! Seems like all poets enjoy cartooning clerihews. Xx.

I did, too! When I was young enough to be dumb enough, I watched every episode hoping it would be the one he managed to keep a friend. Tania may just place all of them, she did say multiple placements. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
