Shim, Shim, Shimabukuro 1
Consider Jake Shimabukuro,
Who tills an improbable furrow.
By practicing daily
As he plays ukulele
With technique that is startlingly thorough.

Shim, Shim, Shimabukuro 2
Shimabukuro
Stays technically thorough
By practicing daily
On his ukulele.
His fame took a spiral,
When videos (viral)
Of his virtuosity
Provoked curiosity,
And proved by this fact
He’s no novelty act.
This technical guru
From bright Honolulu
Has success on the uke
That isn’t a fluke.
