Here lies Sir Jonathan Smoot
Unfortunately wearing only one boot,
He tangled with an alligator
And failed to say, “I’ll see you later!”

Jonathan Copla's birthday 
Is far away from bad weather; 
The clouds in the sky aren't gray, 
Bringing the touch of the zephyr.

Jonathan Swift's
priorities could sell for a dime,
for his greatest wish
was to be big and small, all at the same time.



NOTE: Jonathan Swift was the author of Gulliver's Travels....

Old Jonathan Winters
Would have you in splinters
His one-line feeder,
"Take me to your leader!"
Made you record-hoarding,
"This is a recording!"
It was like a toddy
"All over my body!"...

Today I’m thankful for the fog
and for author Jonathan Lockwood Huie
who had the wisdom to write
How
Sometimes we need the fog
to remind ourselves 
that all of life
is not black and white....

The dimwitted Jonathan Twist
Had much trouble getting the gist
He faltered in bed,
Confused in his head
She gave him a slap on the wrist.

Been lovingly called the Master of Mayhem
By Jonathan Wulf a real giant among men
A compliment it is
In return here's this
Just officially baptized him a Master Among Friends

       or the Hebraization 
     underpins the garblization

Rest in Peace if you can Jonathan Jones
As the spirit departs your flesh and bones
For years you led a philandering life
Now lie fore'er next your embittered wife

as you approach upon the midnight sun
perhaps you can recall better days.
and may the cutting winds help you heal
from the 'malicous' love your pen conveyed.
may all the vastness of its land
and bitterness of its cold
touch you warm on the heart and
revive the freedom in your soul....

Limerick : Once a Yahoo forced to go Google

Once a Yahoo* forced to go Google
Took out a leash/lease to lasso Poodle
Yahoo marched his Mistress
Through high-water distress
And for pains was told to « Go ! Doodle ! »

*Refers to beings in Jonathan Swift’s Gullivers Travels
