Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

He Sang Like Sinatra

A New Jersey-ite, his name Hobo Ken
For singing ballads, he had quite a yen
  He would sing like Sinatra
  From Vegas to Sumatra
On rails he rode with fellow jobless men

Michelle Faulkner September 3, 2020 at 7:31 PM Wow, I am impressed with rhyming 'Sinatra' and 'Sumatra' - I would never have come up with that! Gershon Wolf September 3, 2020 at 8:21 PM Well, thank you!... I wonder if Sinatra is really 'Senator' or something like that in garbled Italian. Frankie certainly hob-nobbed with enough politicians, though he went straight to the top -- JFK, Nixon, Reagan. Blue eyes and Blue skies, Gershon
