Super Sherlock

When Sherlock Holmes is solving a case
the villains footsteps he must retrace
He's such an excellent sleuth
and will uncover the truth
his detection skills truly are ace!

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 2/1/2019 10:01:00 AM :) Enjoyed, Jan! I've always found Holmes interesting, but in the movie, it's Watson (Jude Law) who steals my heart.
