MY FRIEND, GERSHON
~Gershon~
I know a poet, with flair and he shows it!
Neither shy is he, neither, faux-debonair.
He is kind with a sharp,

The Wolf of Gershon Howls
Though his tone is quite gregarious
And his intent softly nefarious
He is ever so meek
His tongue in his cheek
His double entendre hilarious

Gershon’s Pen
Gifted golden pen drenched in
Emerald emancipating elegance
Regal red reverie so daring
Sending me singing thinking or dreaming
Humble humorous and socially conscious
Onyx thoughts that hold on to us
Needling patches together so clever
Souls fed by his poetic endeavor
Praying for peace with pen
Engaging his fellow men
Noble and kind gentleman

A Gala For Gershon
Gershon's fab writing reaches like
a preacher,
he's a retired teacher,
and poet extraordinaire,
with phenomenal flair.
His humor is witty,
he hails from Chicago city.
He deserves more views,
he pens poignantly too.
A poetry prince,
and I've been hooked ever since.
He ranges from limericks so cute,
to his love of his homeland Israel
so resolute.
He sends encouraging words,
and it would be absurd,
to not give him

for Gershon's verse makes bright the day!

Gershon Wolf
Our genial Jewish friend, Gershon
Pursues poetry for a diversion
For Russia, he has much disdain
A wolf defending Ukraine
His poems are marked by precision

Gershon Wolf
Gershon Wolf is a super kind of fellow
In his poems, sometimes you hear him bellow
He is a conservative Jew,
On Poetry Soup very few
No one would dare call Gershon Wolf yellow!
Gershon is a stand-up and be counted guy
What he believes he would write high in the sky
Never one to fumble
Though sometimes he grumbles
Gershon Wolf -- a

How I Feel About Gershon Wolf
The poem I have written about is
THE UNIVERSE WINKS by Gershon Wolf
Statues rise and fall
Empires stutter and stall
Genius streaks 'cross the sky
Leaves in its wake more 'Whys?'
Mountains slowly erode
Earth cracks, they implode
The seas advance then recede
A hiss of steam from icebergs freed
The sun grows

To follow the Gershon Diet
Don't cook it when you can fry it!
With bagel holes
To fuel your goals
What else can you do but try it?

Gershon Matters
Is Chicago an holey city
Or is it a town without pity?
Kirk Douglas would know
But would he dare go
Where the bullets are itty-bitty?

Gershon Wonders
I've always been good with a sling
And can hit a bird on the wing
But Dave hit a giant
Who was not complaint
And for that, they made him a king?

No Bull -- a Poetry Collaboratry -- Belle Bellevue and Gershon Wolf
A fool matador by name of El Cid
Could not control either ego or id
Turned his back on the bull
Felt a rude tug, hard pull
Two horns split his tights down the seams, they did
One should never turn his back on a bull
Unless, of course, one's extremely skillful
Bulls are fierce and
