Oh, that Carol Burnett, with eyes and expressions, you'll not forget, tugging her left ear after each show, saying "Grandma, I love you so".

Sandra, I appreciate your support for my Flash Poetry Challenge (10). Your poem was randomly chosen to be featured in my 'Results' blog, which is now up and running. Your "Carol Burnett" clerihew brought back many enjoyable memories from our watching her show each week. Nicely done.

I loved this Sandra. After having her on three of my flights I got to visit with her a bit and she remembered me. I am a huge fan of her work. She is a delightful person and a humble generous soul. Congratulations on your win Sandra! : ) xxoo

Thank you so much, Connie! Yes, I knew from a comment you made on another poem I wrote about her, that you met Carol and her family! So special! Hugs, Sandra
