Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Elvis Changed Ed Sullivan

Andy Griffith and Barney Fife 
Aunt Bea 
Opie 

Father knows Best 
Betty and Bud 
Kathy called “kitten” 

Loretta Young 
Dinah Shore 
The Lennon Sisters 

Bonanza 
Adam 
Hoss and Little Joe 

Sing Along With Mitch 
Gary Moore 
Ed Sullivan 

Wholesome family shows 
Until Elvis 
Showed up on Ed Sullivan 
Our shocked parents 

Jumped up and turned off the TV set 
But not soon enough
