Would Amelia Earheart
today be a dear heart
if she had left us knowing
the route she was going?

Great rhyme and humor in your clerihew, Gerard!! I saw the movie about Amelia Earheart and it appeared they were actually tracking her route from Howland Island when she suddenly went off the radar. The movie made it appear that she had run out of fuel, though I'm no expert on her historical background. John will love this entry! Wishing you success. Love, Carolyn
