Peewee Herman

Saturday mornings were the best How I loved to catch your show Your high energy naughtiness Your effervescence was contagious Delighted me and left me in awe Peeking my curiosity and Capturing my imagination So creative and quirky Meticulously choreographed Perky and hysterically funny A surprise around every corner I was way older than what Anyone would call a big kid But you made me fall in love With the youth I never had It shocked us all when You let us down but we forgave you You’ll always be a genius in my eyes Submitted January, 2018

Love it..my youngest son , Patrick was nicknamed pee wee by his siblings because he was a skinny little kid when the movie came out

He blew my mind - if he was still on TV, I would make a point of watching him daily.

Oh, Line, maybe I have your age wrong. Peewee came along in the 80's , didn't he? But you say you were way older than what anyone would call a big kid. Now I have a feeling I am older than you!! I think Pee Wee came along when I was in my 20's, married and with kids. I remember enjoying some of what he did but I was never too crazy about him. Remember the Macarena dance he did? People DID forgive him and I bet he is still making appearances even today! GREAT tribute for him.

OK gloves off, mask off... whatever... I was born in 58... veil of mystery be gone !! I would watch PeeWee with a little girl I cared for - well, that was the official story anyway. His Macarena dance from his movie was... THE BEST !!
