This is wonderful, Charlie, and a great form - I just noticed that it received Poem of the Day as well - congratulations! I have NEVER tried this form but just did, and I have to say, it was a LOT of fun, and I'm going to write more, (and maybe my next contest). Thank you for introducing me to it, my friend - I hope I do it some justice, as you have here. Blessings! :-)
