Roger Vadim
got three wishes it would seem.
What'd he do to deserve
Bardot, Fonda, and Deneuve?.
Raging Rats Rush & Race,
Rippling, Rustling & Restless.
Rooted Roger Rocks in Relief
Reckon Rats Rambled to Rill.
Ripples of Rivulet,
Rapsody of Raindrops,
Resounding Roar of Relief
Roger Rejoicing
Good night ladies and gentlemen
I’m ready to sleep and dream again
My silk bonnet on my head again
Ceiling fan going strong my friend
Good night hope you sleep long
But if you’re in another time zone
Then enjoy your morning or noon
May your day be pleasantly consumed
And if you’re looking for a test
Enter my Prince Roger Nelson contest
This time I’ll have more winners and
You can be one so take a chance
Roger Joseph Ebert
on film judging was an expert
so, upon his review
would he give two thumbs up to my clerihew
The gals are besotted with Roger,
he's famed for the size of his todger,
they pay for his time
(he charges a dime) -
he's ninety but not an old codger.
No need of Viagra in force
as Roger's ancestors were Norse
(and vikings were known
for getting a bone) -
his resume says, 'Intercourse.'
Federer’s retiring,
He finally announced.
He hasn’t played in ages, but
The newshounds, they all pounced.
A classy player, through and through,
He ranks up with the best,
To which his many titles
And his sponsors will attest.
It wasn’t a surprise for fans
And yet the message sent
Is that, in tennis circles,
There is something to lament.
As parodies go
You as hell done gone and stole the show
With Black is the new Pink
Roger if may so bold as to quote
and paraphrase you in your own words
Hey preacher teacher leave those
kid's alone
We don't need no thought control
Especially from someone who went
from using a wall as a metaphor to tell us
All in all we're just another brick in the wall
To the builder and defender of the wall itself
Pink was always black he's only now
just come out and shown us all his
true colors
R-eal lover of art and literature
O-ver the years, that creates
G-enuine and original ideas
E-xpressed through highly dedicated works
R-evering the value of writing as a form of expression.
C-onstantly promoting originality and forbids
A-ny kind of vicious imitation.
R-everberating the spirit of
V-aluing the sanctity of the
I-deas of others, so real
S-elf esteem and sense of ownership will be achieved.

FRIENDSHIP
of FRED and ROGER
Free Verse
Like true brothers, for many years you’re friends,
From Calabarzon to Mimaropa regions
Sharing secrets, stories and laughters
The countenance of friendship forever.
Yes, you’re growing old and your hair is gray
But your hearts remain young
you share your problems without hesitation
That makes your friendship firm and no vacillation.
You’ve found more and more comrades
Everyday as you traverse in this world so dark
But a true friend is hard to find
It's like looking for GEM underneath the ocean.
EUREKA! EUREKA!
This is what your hearts shout out loud
Do not allow your friendship to be shuttered apart
Maintain this friendship until you breathe your last
BUT WHEN YOU FART PLEASE KEEP APART.
He-he-he-he!

Roger Dean at a South African college
And team, caught our singularity
The black hole, so Einsteins Relativity
Does not apply here, physics' knowledge
II
Amazing that at the center of our Milky Way
There is so much outside of usual gravity
Space-time, if a fabric, has massive debris
One of these swallows all light, passers by!

NOTE: I like to think of black Holes as great recyclers & cleaners. That found in our Galaxy is named Sagittarius star
Hahayaan kong marinig mo, ang bawat pag kabog at paghagulgol nitong nasa loob ko.
Simula, mula simula ako ay tulala habang nag-iisip kung ano ang isusulat na tula.
Wakas, hanggang saw akas bakas parin ang nilagyang gapas
Noong ang loob ay nagdarasal na kumalas patungo sa bagong bukas.
Ngayon, pilit paring ginagamot ang pilat na sa akin ay iginapos.
Ngayon ako ay aahon at sasabihing gutom… ako po ay gutom kaya tulala.
Gutom hindi sa pagkain kung hindi sa salita.
Nauubusan na po ako ng mga salita.
Mga salitang makapag papaimbulog sa mga damdaming nais kumalas
at nais gumuhit sa kapirasong papel upang mailabas ang nararamdaman.
[Creditation: I must thank Jan for reintroducing me
To that delightful word... ‘Todger’ in her ‘Bawdy Limerick’]
My landlady’s sexually keen
She’s also a little obscene
She called me her todger
I said you mean lodger
And she said I know what I mean
She gave me a wink and she said
You could pay this week’s rent in my bed
Her offer was real
So I made her squeal
My rent is now three months ahead
I knew of a man named Roger
He was my neighbour's lodger
I heard he was leaving
He was caught thieving
Just like the Artful Dodger
Gulls
Cry brings
Ghost Rider
Pirates shimmer
Jolly Roger flies
Mist unfurls sails
Empty decks
Forever
