L Milton Hankins Poet Clerihew

Caren Krutsinger

Caren Krutsinger
As a poet, she’s a whimsical humdinger
Her imagination soars to incredible heights
I love her woodland fantasy flights.

Caren Krutsinger
As a wordsmith, she comes up with a zinger
That makes us chuckle with glee
An entertainer par excellence, she’s also free!

Caren Krutsinger
Will be the first to admit she’s not a singer
But she drives much too fast 
And sings with her radio up full blast.

Nice of you, a sort of thankgiving Milt. L Milton Hankins November 20, 2022 at 9:00 PM Anaya, she is an enormously talented lady ... painting and writing. She posts some of her paintings on Facebook, so you might see some there.
