Short Brendan Poems

The boys have formed a Rock Group
Whilst Liam plays guitar
He hopes he'll reach the doors of fame
And so, become a super star

Brendan, he does play the drums
He loves to feel that beat
"I did not know they played so well'
With amazement, spoke our Pete

But Vera wasn't too impressed
She said "that's far too heavy"
I do wish that they would play
Some sweet stuff just for me...

The last time I heard your voice
Was when you were on the S.S. Charlotte
You said I was ornery
For breaking your computer

But I shouldn't be
Because you're worried about me
And my well-being
That's why you left for the Navy
To protect all of US 
Literally the United States
And I am grateful
Godspeed to you, cousin
We're with you all the way...

Not to mention precolumbian wrecks of Chinese  junks 
Found in the sandy bottom of San Diego harbor;
And the Mongoloid  footsloggers who tiptoed south to Ann Arbor
Across the floes of the Bering Strait ten millennia before....
