Biographical Reflections on A.G.


Where did Art Garfunkel 

   Garner the strength

To keep doing things of

   Spectacular length?


At his bar mitzvah in 1954, Garfunkel performed as a cantor, singing over four hours of his repertoire for his family. - Wikipedia


Early in life he displayed

   Superpowers

And sang to his loved ones for

    Hours and hours.


Garfunkel has undertaken several long walks in his lifetime… he walked across Japan in a matter of weeks. - Wikipedia


We hope he stocked up with

   A lot of sunblocker

Before he asserted his

   Strength as a walker.


He has also read the entire Random House Dictionary. - Wikipedia


And only the ardent of

   Biblio-lovers

Would read every word

   That the lexicon covers.


Given all this, I am 

   Sad to report

That only his career with

   Paul Simon was short.
