Thomas Jeffrey Hanks

Mr. Thomas Jeffrey Hanks,
Passionately pursued his dreams by pulling pranks,
By smooth-talking fellow workers, this prankster cannot be found,
As Hollywood checked in, opened doors of opportunity and he's making ground.

Heretical Hanks
There once was a poet named Hanks
Who loved to play metrical pranks;
A master of rhyme
And sonnets sublime
He'd nevertheless be the first to confess
That his messing with scansion caused lavish expansion 
Of ultimate lines which knew no confines,
Defying all schools of rhythmical rules, 
Resulting in poetic...

Golly, where do I start when there are so many of them
Some B-Movie actors but so many are gems

The third movie he starred in was with Hannah in Splash
A mermaid so cute, boy her squeals made me laugh

The next one that secured me to liken...

Hank’s Predicament
Limerick: by Tom
7/27/2022

I once knew a man named Hank,
while in the army drove a tank.
Then one day’s dread,
the tank lost a tread.
At that time Hank's mind went blank.

Premium Member In Collaboration With Tom Hanks
Mr. Thomas Jeffrey Hanks,
Was known to pull off desk pranks,
I told him, "Three bags."
He said, "From those hags."
One heard, said, "No tip, so thanks!"



***Under his breath, he tells me, "Oh yeah! I gave them their tip, alright!"

Premium Member Hanks Celebration of Life
Hank’s celebration of life
advertised by kids and wife
hootenanny tonight
flyer says it is out of sight

it was a blast and went until two
refusing to leave were twenty-two
jokes, laughter, stories and such
Hank would have loved this very much!...
