Line Gauthier Poet Clerihew

Notes About The Poem

The Man Inside

Robin Williams the first
of his lips humor would burst
he’d blare out Good morning Vietnam
Nanu Nanu a crazed madman I am

Gershon Wolf March 28, 2019 at 4:59 PM Nanu, Nanu! Unforgettable. Thanks for the chuckle and the pleasant memories. Wish Robin had enjoyed the ride as much as his adoring audiences did... G.L. in the contest. :) gw Line Gauthier March 28, 2019 at 8:00 PM Indeed, Gershon. A most touching life of highs and lows.

Caren Krutsinger March 24, 2019 at 10:27 AM I had to almost spit out my orange juice when I saw who you chose. My favorite poets are choosing all of my favorite performers in this contest! I am running out of favorites, so doubt I will enter at all. Line Gauthier March 24, 2019 at 10:55 AM LOL I'm sure you'll think of someone else, Caren!
