A Japanese inventor has over 3,500 patents
That's three times more than Thomas Alva Edison
Do they ever sleep
Do they count sheep
Checked it recently, no special talents

Edison

I thought of a day sans the Sun
I thought of a night sans the light

All the times that I thought of the light
I thought of Edison!

Thomas Alva Edison-
The power house shed light in the direction of right
A total solution found dark to fight

Light, an innovation from the mind of a bright
A revolution only second to the Moon walk strait

All the times that,I look at the light
I see the tired face of the might
Edison bought time and time to come out of his plight

Light in the night-
In the way of Owl's and Bat's sight

Edison, a pupil the school refused to teach
Edison, a lessen the schools undertook to teach

Edison bore torch light to his mate,Henry Ford
To put his wheels of four on the road

On the day of TWO ELEVEN of his birth-
Don't switch off lights to bring dark
But switch on saying "EDISON" in honor to mark!

Thomas Alva Edison

Thomas Alva Edison
was known to be reticent
but he decided to make the world bright
so he told them about his kitchen light

Thomas Edison

Thomas Alva Edison
Drank milk instead of medicine.
He died of diabetes - 
Should have had his milk with Wheaties!

The Incandescent Bulb

Such a spherical near ball of delight, 
Dispelling darkness with illuminating bright light. 
It’s core made of red hot and burning filament, 
An element clearing blackness, our eyes out of predicament. 
If not for a discovery, by Thomas Alva Edison? 
We’d still be in Hades, instead we’re in Heaven. 
So thanks to the bulb, we don’t strain our sight, 
Whether its day light or the darkest of night. 
Imagine a life without incandescent light? 
I shudder to think of such a terrible plight. 
-	Prince Freakasso (Painter & Poet)
