With your diploma in hand, you stand smiling,
one of one-hundred-thirty-four graduates of law
from Willamette’s Class of 2009
to walk across that stage.
I give a cheer.
Your father, crouched near the front,
is ready with the camera
to capture this moment we have all awaited.
It’s a moment of happiness
for you to recall with satisfaction.
For me, your dad, sister and nephew, here among the throng,
it’s a time of great honor we’ll remember with pride.
Your pathway to this moment has been arduous and long.
We know how you have struggled.
We know what you have lost.
But also, we know what you have won. . .
May you go forth into this world with that same spirit
that won for you, with much hard work, this prize.
May you always be honest, just, and strong. . .
and may all the dreams you’ve dreamed at last be yours.
(currently Jeremy is married with three kids and is serving as an assistant DA
in Oregon. If he can stay with public service three more years, all that money borrowed for law school will be forgiven debt! Fingers crossed!!)

A TV star
He wanted to be a star on TV
He wanted his face to be seen
He knew it would be quite a challenge,
but he yearned to be living the dream.
The programme in question was not in dispute
He'd planned it for quite a long while
He'd start at the bottom and work his way up
by spending a morning on Jeremy Kyle.
The first thing to do was to get a tattoo
He'd planned it, it wasn't on speck
He'd soon learn to live with an arm that was blue
and 'Mother' scrawled over his neck.
The next thing to get was a girlfriend
He found him a beauty worth kissing
Between them their teeth were a dentist's delight
One black, one white, one missing.
They sat on the stage and went into a rage
the audience hurling abuse
the pair of them both started fighting
but then they had nothing to lose.
They caused so much trouble on stage
he asked them to leave by the back
but audience members were waiting
preparing to make an attack.
No way could they hide from the people outside
determined to point out their sins.
The crowd started throwing tomatoes,
unfortunately still in their tins.
But he was quite happy, he'd managed his goal
His fifteen minutes of fame
Celebrity Big Brother was waiting
They'd always remember his name.
Form:
Jeremy Corbyn plots his agenda,
anti-monarch, a Royal ending.
He's only out to change the political system,
a possible route is through a second referendum,
as a second vote undoubtedly means the system doesn't work,
and he'll have a valid point in that the system needs a twerk.
So in our generations most pivotal moment,
when unity is never more important,
when politicians are needed to serve the public,
Corbyn's main priority's to create his dream Republic.
Harming us all, neglecting responsibility in a BREXIT solution,
creating more uncertainty, with hopes of it leading to revolution.
I condemn this man only out to cause disruption,
a second referendum is his traitorous suggestion,
take note, this is an act of political corruption,
not serving public needs or preserving our future,
out to please personal want, abusing his stature.
Proving he is only in politics, not for the people, but, for himself.
I beg of thee Labour, find a new party leader in someone else.
My dear Siblings,
I voted for Hillary.
I would have preferred Bernie,
but she agreed to much of his platform-especially universal health care and education and seemed to be cognizant of environmental/climate change issues and bonus--she's a woman!
How I feel now? I am still haunted by the sound of my millennial son as he stood in the shower the morning after the election,
sobbing,
grief stricken,
mourning the loss of freedom and safety for many of his friends of different races,
nationalities,
sexual identities
and religions.
I am both immensely proud of him and fear for him
when I remember him coming out of the bathroom after that gut wrenching and utterly hopeless outpouring of tears.
He wore the look of a young man going off to war
and declared his allegiance and his personal protection to all those now named targets of hatred.
I'm not sure that I would have the courage to be a millennial now.
I recently watched about 20 snapping turtle hatchlings emerge, one by one, from a small hole in the sand bank above the pond and embark on a hilarious topsy-turvey tumble down the embankment and disappear into the dark stillness under the lush green vegetation of the shallow water.
Along the way some of them appeared to die.
At one point, the lifeless forms were starting to pile up near the exit hole of the nest and I feared for those still waiting for their turn to feel the sunlight on their faces.
What amazed me was to see how these little creatures responded to each other.
One would walk right over the top or lightly brush up against the side of an apparently dead sibling
and suddenly they were moving along together.
I imagined one saying to the other,
"Come on. You can do it. Don't stop now."
or maybe "I'll race you",
like I used to say to Jeremy when I wanted him to move faster.
I was relieved and very satisfied when the last one slipped into the pond;
a proud midwife.
I can only hope that the extreme disregard for the Earth and all her creatures,
including human beings,
that is spewing out of our political system and corporations
will incite all of us to a new way of being;
to getting everybody to the pond.
Lovingly,
Kerry
Robert Cabot Sherman, Jr. was an All-American boy.
To his parents, Robert Cabot Sr. and Juanita, he was their great joy.
Gifted with acting skills and a great voice, his career went far.
In no time at all, California's native son became a star.
On television in "Here Come the Brides", he played "Jeremy"
This role cemented his tremendous popularity.
His first recording of "Little Woman" soared up the charts.
Bobby won uncountable teenage girls' hearts.
His burgeoning popularity was totally unquestionable.
Other hits that followed made him a big teen idol.
With all the attention he was getting, there was some strife.
Bobby decided to back away to a quieter life.
Yes, Bobby certainly accomplished much in his day.
At the age of eighty-one, he silently passed away.
Bobby Sherman
(1943-2025)
I thank Wikipedia,org online encyclopedia for information I obtained to write this poem.
They've thrown down the gauntlet
The Asians have a golf 'major' now won
Hideki Matsuyama, Masters Tournament Champion
The first from the Land of the Rising Sun
Ms. Naomi Osaki has won Tennis' Grand Slam
Mr. Shohei Otani could be the next Babe Ruth for glam
Mr. Yu Darvish was the hottest pitcher in the NL last year
Ichiro Suzuki garnered over 3,000 MLB hits as Japanese fans cheered
And I predict that there lurks a Chinese missile
Whose shooting touch is that of an accurate pistol
He's ready for the NBA to welcome him back in
A Harvard grad, no less, by the name of Jeremy Lin
As the world now sees China as America's #1 superpower rival
So is the world of sports witnessing an awesome Asian revival
Not-So-Heroic Couplets
by Donald Trump
care of Michael R. Burch
To outfox the pox:
kill yourself first, with Clorox!
And since death is the goal,
mainline Lysol!
No vaccine?
Just chug Mr. Clean!
Is a cure out of reach?
Fumigate your lungs, with bleach!
To immunize your thorax,
destroy it with Borax!
To immunize your bride,
drown her in Opti-cide!
To end all future gridlocks,
gargle with Vaprox!
Now, quick, down the Drain-o
with old Insane-o NoBrain-o!
Trump’s real goals are obvious
and yet millions of Americans remain oblivious.
—Michael R. Burch
Less Heroic Couplets: Just Desserts
by Michael R. Burch
“The West Antarctic ice sheet
might not need a huge nudge
to budge.”
And if it does budge,
denialist fudge
may force us to trudge
neck-deep in sludge!
NOTE: The first stanza is a quote by paleoclimatologist Jeremy Shakun in Science magazine.
Less Heroic Couplets: Miss Bliss
by Michael R. Burch
Domestic “bliss”?
Best to swing and miss!
Less Heroic Couplets: Then and Now
by Michael R. Burch
BEFORE: Thanks to Brexit, our lives will be plush! ...
AFTER: Crap, we’re going broke! What the hell is the rush?
Less Heroic Couplets: Dear Pleader
by Michael R. Burch
Is our Dear Pleader, as he claims, heroic?
I prefer my presidents a bit more stoic.
Less Heroic Couplets: Less than Impressed
by Michael R. Burch
for T. M., regarding certain dispensers of lukewarm air
Their volume’s impressive, it’s true ...
but somehow it all seems “much ado.”
Less Heroic Couplets: Poetry I
by Michael R. Burch
Poetry is the heart’s caged rhythm,
the soul’s frantic tappings at the panes of mortality.
Less Heroic Couplets: Poetry II
by Michael R. Burch
Poetry is the trapped soul’s frantic tappings
at the panes of mortality.
Less Heroic Couplets: Seesaw
by Michael R. Burch
A poem is the mind teetering between fact and fiction,
momentarily elevated.
Less Heroic Couplets: Passions
by Michael R. Burch
Passions are the heart’s qualms,
the soul’s squalls, the brain’s storms.

What is a poem if not a song
Just add the melody
And sing along
What is a poem if not a dance
Gliding across the page
with moves to enchant
What is a poem if not a rose
as words bring it to bloom
in sweet repose
What is a poem if not a butterfly
fluttering of the page
and up to the sky!
Joseph May
What is a poem but a caring letter
Sending love and advice
To make you feel better
Judy Ball
What is a poem if not a flower
Beautiful blossoms
Climb cerebral bowers
Daniel Turner
What is a poem, if not life
So much emotion
To stamp out worldly strife
Harry Horsman
What is a poem if not a word
Within words, singing
images unheard
Darren White
What is a poem if not a rainbow
Adding many colors
That leaves a glow
Alexis Y.
What is a poem, if not a voice of expression
many thoughts expressed,
in so few lines
Jeremy Smith
*If you wish to add to this poem, I will add it with your name.
