Luciano Pavarotti
sang for the posh and snotty
how his songs proved mighty popular
that old fat tum of the Opera

Seeing the title Pavarotti, I just KNEW you would write "snotty"! Lol... Julia, xx

Sorry, Julia, I was struggling, apart from Carlo Ancelotti. And I have a nice firm botty (apparently). God, being an amateur poet is hell x

Enjoyable Clerihew, Viv. I know little about Pavarotti the person, but his voice was awesome. In Malta we have a very excellent tenor who is/will be on a par with him...Joseph Calleja (and without the tummy!). // paul
