Three Syllable Casablanca

by jim vecchio

Three by Four Poem Contest Winner 


Richard Blaine
Ran a bar
Singer Sam
Was the star

Sam and Rick
Were a pair
Till Miss Lund
Walked in there

Lund told Sam,
“Play the song!”
Rick did not
Sing along

Rick drank much
-It was her,
His old love
Now quite near

Victor was
Her new beau
Where he went
She did go

Vic was a
Patriot
Welcome here
He was not

Blaine and Lund
Still a team
Did they love?
-That’s obscene!

Germans tried
To get Vic
Rick Blaine said,
“Here’s The trick!”

Rick had their
Transit needs
Would they turn
To good deeds?

Germans thought
Vic was trapped
In their net
Neatly wrapped

Near the plane
Rick then changed
Vic’s escape
He arranged

Rick said, “Bye!”
To his love
As the plane
Flew above

Rick made friends

with police

paving paths

to world peace
