Never mistaken as Caliban.
Known for his island fiction
Where we heard his elegant diction....

Again plays Khan.
Marooning his nemesis Kirk inside a moon
The part ends with Singh’s doom....

Ricardo Montalbán
Was very urban.
He pushed soft Corinthian leather 
And sidekick Tattoo was light as a feather....

Have a great birthday, Brother Ric, 
Positive thinking makes success; 
An outlook so optimistic 
Learns from failure to gain chances.

Ricardo liked decking the halls
His ornaments covered the walls
But ceilings too high
He passed them right by
For those he did not have the balls

Only tempest and decrepit,
Blackened and lost souls.
Covet and seek,
For something much more.

Never sway, never cede.
The blessed seek nothing more.
The Blessed are those-who with faith.
Who with FAITH fill their soul!

Ricardo wrote poetry with much flair
the literati later,were to declare
'Twenty Love Poems & A song of Despair'
And his 'Residence on Earth'
a Nobel prize to reflect their worth.

Inspired by Raul's photo contest

For full nine months forlorn widow,
Every nine hours by window;
Men watching their every shadow,
Still hoping for her Ricardo,
Who'd promised her Eldorado,
This doing in a Choice Meadow...

Now, The Incommunicado,
Gone her main source of Bravado
And Volunteering Troubadour,
To her a Buck she to him Doe,
Ricardo, not innocent, though...

Slain for vanishing with Grang's dough...

(This is a fictional poem)

I built a time machine and I went back to 1952.
Ricky Ricardo kicked my ___ after he sang Babalu.
I told him that his song sounded like a big piece of crap.
He cussed me out in Spanish and gave me a good slap.
He started beating on me until I hit the floor.
That was over a month ago and I'm still sore.
I had never taken a beating like that before.
I'm not going to travel through time anymore....
