In Honour of John Whitworth on the
Sixty-fourth Anniversary of his Birth
a little late, but what the hey?
JOHNNY WOWED 'EM
Johnny wowed 'em with his verse,
Writing from the chair he sat in;
Editors who sneer and curse
At deft and witty work, put that in:
Say he's gone a trifle mad,
Say that laurels never browed him,
Say he's sixty-four, but add
Johnny wowed 'em.
--Leigh Huntress
