Jimmy, Jimmy
you are the one.
You make being
a detective
look like
so much fun.
Angel may involve
you in an escapade.
You'll get him
out of the mess,
but you'll never
get paid.
We know being
a real detective
can be
quite boring.
But when we
watch "Rockford"
you'll never
catch us snoring.
The art work is that of my
daughter Samantha Smothers

You must everyone else does - - - well done
I wonder if he still lives in that old caravan
with his Dad?
One of the best TV series...helped no end by the engaging world-weary performance of its star James Garner, who I recall equally fondly for his performance as Brett Maverick years before this famous private eye series came along. Answerphones have never had so much good publicity!! I can understand your glee about having your poem sent to the man himself. I felt the same way when the subject of my poem "Dambuster" asked if he could submit it to the famous WW2 RAF squadron's museum.
Good for you!!
N.B. Shouldn't "quiet" be "quite" in line 16?
