Happy 146th
 
Edmund Clerihew Bentley
Could hardly have been prepared mentally
For the light verse fame
That would accrue to his middle name.

Has given fine apparel
To this clerihew anniversary,
Though my response is necessarily cursory.

Hi Chris,
Is it OK with you if I move this fun thread to Drills and Amusements?

Thank you, Jayne. Yes, go for it!

EC Bentley
advised me gently:
"Don't let them use a clerihew
as your epitaph when they bury you."

I'll research and return :-)
