Oh, that Carol Burnett,
with eyes and expressions, you'll not forget,
tugging her left ear after each show,
saying "Grandma, I love you so".

Carol Burnett
Carol Burnett hosted a comedy show
And every week when it was time to go
A tug on her earlobe meant 'hi' to her grandmother.
Surely one earlobe is now longer than the other....

had a variety show I'll never forget.

In the freezes of the winter summer-sets.
A brown icy lake then the sky turns burnett.

Heroic Couplet
Engraved In Black and White
The blind fiddler plays
enrapt in his tune;
His wife sits
warm in the melody

Their baby child
does not cry;
hunger is a constant song;

after the painting by Sir David Wilke...
