Tom Valles Poet Clerihew

Musing on De Niro

I saw something subtle, in Mr. De Niro
I get the gist Trump, is just not his hero.
He’s not a good fella, and not his godfather;
And was sure the election, would be a big slaughter.

Gershon Wolf May 17, 2025 at 8:27 PM Love that rhyme -- De Niro and hero. Godfather and slaughter are right up there too. ~ Gershon Tom Valles May 19, 2025 at 5:58 AM Thanks, Gershon!

Sara Kendrick May 16, 2025 at 1:31 PM Creative work. So many interesting people have been on this earth, so famous and some ordinary people who will never be recognized in any except by family and close friends. You have chosen an interesting topic. Sara K Tom Valles May 19, 2025 at 6:00 AM Hi Sara! I am one of those very ordinary people. I tend to think of myself as spectacularly ordinary. I even have a poem about it. Hope you have a great day!

I will take your advice and tread lightly in politics...if at all. Hope you have a great weekend as well!
