That is an inventive way to do the contest!! Maybe I will try a haiku or tanka. I can't think of a thing for species!!

Bit of a brain teaser! Intriguing little collection of lines, Karam. Is it an anagram? I can make out "Mandarin"...but that is only 8 letters not 9. My best regards. :) john

Glad my poem tickled your Greg cells, John. Got the idea from one of the theories of evolution which propounds that life emerged by an accidental combination of elements in a sort of primal soup. It just requires a few alphabets -DNA, RNA - the nucleic acids - which are the basic components of life. Was just trying to be clever in a poetic way. LOL
