Remember David Beckham
The footballing great from Peckham.
He would always bend it
So no-one could defend it.
-
Remember Johnny Giles
A player with all the wiles.
In midfield he did scheme:
For Leeds he was a dream.

Ping Pong World Champ Andrew Baggaley,
Wow that lad can really play.
Dethroned the “King” who came from Russia,
Then 1966d that kid from somewhere near Prussia.

I’m Cameron, call me Dave,
Power I do crave.

To con you into voting Tory.

Oh Nick Clegg,
Why did you have to beg
For a Tory-led Coalition,
Sending the Lib-Dems into Perdition?

Write a Clerihew:
It’s easy to do.
Two rhyming couplets of any length:
Short and simple, that’s its strength.

Nicole Scherzinger,
What a messenger.
A Friend so loyal,
Regally royal.

Quite a stink was created by Martin,
That's because he kept on....er.....departing.
His verses are so really clever:
Cheer us up in any weather.

All hail be to great Don Newton,
Always had a winning solution.
Played table tennis with flashing blade,
A Legend that will never fade.

A Clerihew
Just for you.
Find a rhyme for a name,
Play the poetry game.

That sporting bloke Dave
Wagstaff
Played a lot of wiff

That’s table tennis to me
and you,
Waggy loves football and
plays music too.

That (nee) Butters girl
Elisabeth,
Her enemies find her the
kiss of death!
Us Butterses don’t mess
about,
Watch out or you will get
a clout.

My sister Joan is now
called Priestley,
A name that only rhymes
with beastly (true!).
This family has a great
tradition,
And Joan is such a fine
addition.

Elizabeth Squires:
Aussie poet who inspires.
Mistress of so many a
form,
Soon to take the world by

This lad needs no

On the stage he plays to thrill.
Acts any character, even
a dame;
He’s master of the drama
game.

My good friend Sandra
Hall,
Is really on the ball.
When she plays tennis,
She’s a menace.

Come on Paula, give us a
twirl.

Wearing a thong.
