    I utilize one frequently to the point of making things up … umm … just make a rhyme with and without a reason.

    Sometimes I deem that way a talking in tongues way that is more fun than talking in tongues another way. To me anyway. She said no way! I say yes way? How about you. What do you think?

    Disney still owns the copyrights for Mickey Mouse,
    Even thought copyrights are supposed to run out,
    So don't give up your day job just yet!

    When walking across Westminster bridge at sunrise with a new member of staff on the morning of a major film premier. To set him into calm mood prior to working with the Queen along with the cast and crew of the film, I recited the word of William Wordsworth.
    Even after 40 years, he remembers that morning and the way that he felt confident working with me as his boss.


    Earth has not any thing to show more fair:
    Dull would he be of soul who could pass by
    A sight so touching in its majesty:
    This City now doth, like a garment, wear
    The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,
    Ships, towers, domes, theaters, and temples lie
    Open unto the fields, and to the sky;
    All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
    Never did sun more beautifully steep
    In his first splendor, valley, rock, or hill;
    Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!
    The river glideth at his own sweet will:
    Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;
    And all that mighty heart is lying still!

    If life as some say comes from a poets heart
    how much more a note or fiddle?
    If morning never dies
    and if the sun doesn't rise in spring
    how can anyone ever do much
    of seeing or skiing or growing green
    in the spring?

    Sweet flowers won't bloom
    the bees won't buzz and honey
    where would the honey be?
    But what if, I say what if ...
    the sun never dies?
    and if it does who's to say
    another sun won't rise?
