Clerihew is biographical and usually whimsical, showing the subject from an unusual point of view; it mostly pokes fun at famous people. It has four lines of irregular length and metre for comic effect The rhyme structure is AABB. I know you don't enter the contests, Bill, maybe one day you might?

Wow, Rome, they're from the UK, "RIO" The music video was shot over the course of three days on the island of Antigua. The yacht scenes were filmed on the bay at English Harbour, the beach scenes at Miller's Beach!

Thank you for the lovely video. Pity it was not about the Fall. I would have loved to visit Canada, but I'm too much attached to Europe, especially Rome which I visited more than twenty times.
