Brian Strand

B elieving in a muse meant to amuse R ecites his verses leaving clues I mpetuous no time for schmooze A ficionado of smooth rhythm and blues N obody alive could fill Brian’s shoes S avory contests are his prized specialty T allies judging without awarding penalty R hyme or free verse, sweet or salty A bove all Brian will never tire N o one more prolific proclaims the town crier D rumroll please for the sire we most admire Submitted on January 6, 2021 for contest CAPTURE THE ESSENCE sponsored by MARGARITA LILLICO - RANKED 8TH
