Michelle Faulkner Poet Clerihew

Frasier and Martin

Frasier Crane
had a hyperactive brain
loved all things suave and debonair
but not a fan of his dad's armchair

Martin Crane
got by with his dog and cane
was a beer and burger scholar
who knew the value of a dollar

10/06/21

from the sitcom 'Fraiser'

Ann Peck October 29, 2021 at 9:29 AM Memory lane...I loved that series, too! And that armchair! Oh my :) I never quite got what the female that lived there was. She took care of Martin, I guess...and cooked and dusted and fended off Niles. Your poem is great! Love "beer and burger scholar." :)

Sara Kendrick October 7, 2021 at 4:50 AM Good one about those two. I haven't seen many of their sitcoms but did see a few and a few ads. I enjoyed reading your work for the contest. Reads like a good contender to me. Way to go.
