Clerimerick Couplets (hybrid form)
Sponsored by: Mark Toney

 

The legendary teen idol Elvis Aaron Presley was criticized for his gyrations, expressly. And yet, this shooting star went supernova, morphing into a teenage Casanova. When this Memphis boy began to croon he'd wildly grind his hips to the tune; and flashing his ice-blue eyes, he'd generate tears and sighs; while making the young girls scream and swoon. Born blond, he dyed his hair black and the King never went back. He seemed to suffer an itch, the way he would twist and twitch.

I remember Elvis. I wasn't a fan, but his songs were good. He deserves this tribute, and you deserve applause for this poem. It is a lovely look back.
