Has It Been a Year Already-I Added a Few More

As thephilosopher readies for his p soup anniversary Remembering he found this place last Christmas Day Surely the best gift he did receive Now for some holiday fun, DON”T LEAVE Denise Narayadu I can't end the line with her name To mispronounce it with a bad rhyme would be a shame Her writing has very much intrigued me In her poems often it's myself that I see Of Anne Lise Andressen what can I toast She's in a contest of which Debbi G is the host Of who Santa Clause is her knowledge has a lack If she asked I could easily have told her it's Jack I mean look at Jack, white beard, hair a jolly feller If my put my original line here, I'd be locked in a cellar Any American could mistake Canada for the north pole It's cold, I've never been there and at times there's a lot of snow Jack Ellison in his Santa role this time of year Oh from the straight and narrow often does he veer Constant approval from the p soup ladies, I know he smiles If I was Santa his naughty list would stretch for miles Andrea D secretly a hater of the Villanelle That’s atrocious what’s my basis you say She hosted a contest and a thousand forms she will allow BUT a max of 12 lines leaves me saying CHINGADO PD, the SWEETEST poet destroyer she told me A philosopher asks how sweet a destroyer can be The poet in me reads her work with much confusion The imagery addicting but my understanding a delusion Becca Lucas the girl who lost her muse If she had schizophrenia she may have several to lose However several other problems this would pose If one of them was mean I may be a victim of her prose FJ Thomas gave me the wonderful gift of the Fibonacci She might deserve a song but my muse isn’t Liberace She wrote the Art of Being Broken, a deep piece but not long Did some guy really leave a comment quoting a poison song And finally I will close with Richard Lamoureux If you haven’t seen his clerihew read it TODAY Quiet humorous, he pokes fun with affection His first clerihew was a work of perfection Yes on a few new names Wayland did call Unfortunately he still hasn’t got to them all Some he intentionally won’t mention It’s Christmas Eve and he seeks no dissention

Did you say "virgin" Clerihew lol? You made my evening too just with that lol. You were already included in this one, not one of the few I added. I hope my rhyme reflected the pronunciation that you use of your name. Thanks for reading and the wonderful comment. I went ahead and wrote a Terzenelle as well. Please check that out and make sure I didn't miss any detail, thank you in advance.
