Sense Sonnet - Pumper

James Garner

James Garner was one of the few
Who made it big and long to act
In both movie and T.V. view.
He will be missed, and that's a fact.
His fame and fortune 'twixt and 'tween
The witty gamblin' man, Maverick,
"Scrounger" in "The Great Escape" scene,
For real racer in "Grand Prix" flick,
"Rockford Files" loveable P.I.,
Aging druggist with "Murphy's Romance,"
Old Duke "Notebook"ing his youth guy.
So much entertainment expanse.

Acting o'er a five decades span,
James Garner was a busy man.
