    Fantastic! A clerihew about the inventor of the clerihew! I enjoy the use of a poetic form to write an homage to its inventor or person who made it popular.

      Thankyou for your comment and good wishes.

      Your profile only reveals that you are in Australia. So I cannot use my usual final subscription - 'Best wishes from 'down-under'
      So will just say: "Greetings from Western Australia"

      and wonder from whence you hail.
