Johnny Carson, Jack Paar
Who was late-night TV talk's greatest star?
   Leno, Letterman, and Dick Cavett
   couldn't compare; didn't have it...

Jay Leno is known for telling jokes
And gets applause from many folks
 They always smile, they always grin
When he jokes about his massive chin...

(Dedicated to Johnny carson who died January 23, 2005.)

He was a great asset to NBC.
Everybody was sorry when he retired, including me.
I used to watch him years ago.
Everybody loved watching Johnny on the Tonight Show.
I have fond memories of Carson and I'm sure that most everyone does.
Leno is good but he's not as good as Johnny was.
Carson was very talented, that can't be denied.
An entire nation mourned when he died....

Spelling a thing of the past,
Thank-you cards will disappear,
Cursive writing will be lost, 
No more postal mail.

Phone conversations are gone,
All temples of worship close,
Libraries lock their front doors,
No more paper books. 

Good news for Craig Ferguson, 
Entertainer - Late, Late show,
The all new Johnny Carson,
No more Jay Leno.

I never watch the Oprah show
I don't like Dr. Phil
Jay Leno isn't funny
And Martha makes me ill

I used to watch Magnum, PI
I really liked Bonanza
Now I watch Home Shopping
And their jewerly extravaganza

I sometimes watch old movies
But most come on so late
I fall asleep half way through
So it isn't worth the wait

I don't watch American Idol
Or all that "Reality" poop
I'd rather spend my time writing poems
To post on PoetrySoup!!!!!...
