An homage to Jessica Fletcher
“Who Killed J.B. Fletcher?”
Murder She Wrote
The former school marm
With lots of charm
A writer of mystery
A worthy opponent of Christie
Is she just, having some fun
Or hitting a homerun
Being quite the detective
With a mind most selective
Solving crimes most foul
Not throwing in the towel
Until justice is served
To those whom deserved
Be that in the town in Main
Or on an excursion to Spain
She will always win
Before the episode comes to a fin
“I wouldn’t know a space-time continuum or warp core breach if they got into bed with me” Sir Patrick Stewart
A Very Merry Birthday To You, Sir Pat
Totally charming
Maybe even utterly harming
When you make us laugh
And make us cry
With a voice like that
Sir Pat in a hat
Canny as a cat
Who could resist
Of being kissed
By a great fellow
You’re hell of’
An actor, a Captain and a King
And even able to sing
Wishing you a merry, happy and utterly great Birthday
And as the cliche goes, if I may
Live Long And Prosper
Oh, Captain of Captains!
In Memoriam Omar Sharif 1932-2015
“I can’t say I gave up totally my passion for women, but almost” Omar Sharif
Homage to Omar Sharif
Lawrence of Arabia
That might have made you
Aware to the rest of us
Leaving the world nonplussed
A star among the best of them
Truly, a precious gem
I still remember when I was eight
Dressed like the first mate
Watching the adventures of Captain Nemo
The television series most primo
Many a unforgettable roles you played
The memory of which will not fade
Rest in peace
Omar Sharif
In Memoriam Roger Rees 1944-2015
“The pain of parting is nothing to the joy of meeting again” Charles Dickens, Nicholas Nickleby
Homage to Roger Rees
Quite the Shakespearean
Sometimes even a villain
Well versed with the classics
Performing them with magic
You could pull off Dickens
Off came the mittens
When venturing into science fiction
Causing quite an addiction
For watching certain shows
Always keeping us on our toes
Of what one might expect
You had that affect
But for now, we will see you in re-runs
Watching our most favourite ones
For myself the one is and always will be
Nicolas Nickleby
Rest in peace
Sweet prince
Roger Rees
“I am a doctor, not a magician!” Leonard McCoy
Homage to Dr McCoy i.e. DeForest Kelley
I am a doctor, not a doorstop
I can go on nonstop
I am a miracle worker
Maybe even a tearjerker
Concocting cures for all ailments
I have the treatments
No matter if my patients
Be alien or human
Even if the Yeoman
Came down with the flu
I have the cure and the clue
On what to do
So maybe I am a magician
The premium edition
And even that green blooded
Gosh, darn, crud it…Vulcan
Has to admit it
And I am loving every damned minute!
Ode to all Red Shirts, dead or alive
“He’s Dead, Jim” Dr McCoy
Being a Red Shirt is never easy
Wearing a red shirt
Feeling like about to get hurt
The target is painted on my back
No time for sleep or a snack
I know I am not really cherished
And quite soon to be perished
Since I am mainly used as cannon fodder
Even though I am none the odder
Than a yellow or blue shirted one
So, now my time has come
And with the beat of the drum
I will march into my doom
Proudly, staring into the gloom
After all it is my duty
And that is the beauty
Of being a Red Shirt
An homage to a some of the women I admire
“In every woman there is a Queen. Speak to the Queen and the Queen will answer” Norwegian Proverb
Wonder Women
Feminism?
Never mind the ‘ism’
I’m in it for the idealism
Girl power
Female power
Human power
Heroins
Of different eras
Those afraid
May call you chimeras
Hell raisers
Trailblazers
Your wisdom and insight
Carrying the plight
For those
Who could not fight
Women of power
Hardly the cowards
Quite the women
Of wonder
“I’m much softer than people think. I don’t present to the world an emotional face.
I’m pretty good at self-control, but I am easily moved” Sir Christopher Lee
Homage to Sir Christoper Lee
From the horrors of Hammer
To Lord of the Rings
Without a stammer
Lines delivered like kings
A villain or a hero
Never the zero
Captains and counts
Even some with discounts
Soft or scary
The roles did vary
You never failed
Getting the parts nailed
Without a mock
Shakespeare or Hitchcock
Film or television
Enjoying each transmission
Your dabble
And certainly no babble
Into Heavy Metal
Was right on the petal
All in all
Sir Christopher Lee
How we miss thee
A great human being
We ever have hoped to have seen
An actor most versatile
And never vile
We adored you our sire
The greatest Vampire
Of them all
Sometimes it needs to be said! Reblogged/Enjoy!
“No tea, no shade honey!” RuPaul’s Drag Race
Good God Get a Grip Girl!
You may
Think
You’re the
Cat’s meow
But let’s see
How you
Really feel
After I
Tell you
About
What you
Actually are
I’m not
Trying to
Come for you
Offend you
Upset you
Or even
Resent you
In any way
But this is
What it is
How it is
Really like
Why
Don’t you
Give yourself
A really good
Look in
The mirror
And tell me
Can you
Get a grip
On it!
“The queen is dead, long live the queen!”
Four More Years
Instead
Of a president
Let’s make
The next elect
A drag queen
What a green
And novel idea
Ave Maria!
Oh queenly one
We would have
So much fun
Basking
In the sun
Without
Or With the pun
No doubt
With a shout
We hail
Long live
The queen
