Gershon Wolf Poet Light Verse

Withdrawal

Arnold Palmer was knock-kneed
  when he addressed the ball
President Clinton smoked weed
  yet said he never inhaled at all

Tiger Woods fell in love with a Swede
  though their marriage did sputter and fall
President Biden's been known to mislead
  folks ~ He's still 'that senator' with a drawl

Lindsay Laurie February 19, 2022 at 3:23 PM Hello Gershon ... I reckon you hit the nail on the head with this witty verse - thanks Gershon - Lindsay Gershon Wolf February 19, 2022 at 9:20 PM Thank you, Lindsay, for redirecting my aim: Usually I smash my thumb with the hammer - as opposed to the nail. ~ In and out of Pain

Kim Rodrigues February 19, 2022 at 7:17 AM I don’t believe the malarkey that Clinton did not inhale. Hmm..he was known to lie. Title is great…love the “with a drawl”…plays on the withdrawal theme. Gershon Wolf February 19, 2022 at 9:06 PM You're right, for sure. Clinton never met a lie he didn't like. (-- or a lay, either, some say). And to think that America almost elected his wife President in 2016. How low can we go?! Can't even imagine how little self-respect she has to stay with a CREEP like Slick Willy. Oh, well. Different strokes...

Evelyn Judy Buehler February 18, 2022 at 11:38 AM Poor Arnold Palmer--knock kneed at the ball! Thanks for the laughter. Evelyn :D Gershon Wolf February 19, 2022 at 9:08 PM Thanks, Evelyn. Those images of Arnold putting have stayed with me forever. I just loved Arnie's Army with their shouts of 'Charge.' Hasn't been a golfer to captivate the sports world since. (Tiger Woods, the philanderer, is not my idea of a 'captivating' hero exactly). Have a blessed Sunday, Gershon

Ronald D Thompson February 18, 2022 at 11:00 AM Nice one Gershon, both clever and witty!! Best wishes...Ron Gershon Wolf February 19, 2022 at 9:12 PM Ron, thanks for your kind words. Much appreciated. Best always, Gershon

Joseph P. DiMino February 18, 2022 at 9:32 AM Right on, Gershon; little slips past your observing eye and nostrils. Love it! Gershon Wolf February 19, 2022 at 9:16 PM Ha, ha. Sometimes, however, things go right under my moustache. lol. Thanks, Gershon

Connie Marcum Wong February 17, 2022 at 11:49 PM This is a classic Gershon. I loved it. Especially the Clinton line. That line went round the world before the sun set. Lol. Thanks for the laughter. Nite xxoo Gershon Wolf February 18, 2022 at 7:22 AM Thank you so much, Connie. --'But I never inhaled!' That was right up there with "It depends on what 'it' means." (Testimony about his relationship with Monica L.) Slick Willie never fooled me. That's for sure. :)
