July 10: Clerihew Day (unofficial).

The birthday of Edmund Clerihew Bentley (1875-1956), inventor of the clerihew, has been designated "Clerihew Day" by the man's many followers. The clerihew, a wholly frivolous poetic form, is a four-line verse adhering to the rhyme scheme AABB. The first line consists of a personal name, while those that follow traditionally are, or purport to be, biographical in nature. Little, if any, attention is paid to meter.

I thought I'd join in the spirit of the occasion:

La_spice is my name
Poetry is my game
But that’s not all that I do
I take photographs too!

or

Nelson Mandella
A very fine fella
Although he’s retired
The world he’s inspired

Go on - I know you're itching to write one!
