When-Who-What-Why

When?
Master Buffoon
To wed Mistress May Lune
Raced to the church in July
On the day set for June.

Who?
Mr Snide's
Contempt and pride
Prompts him to pinch
Then run to hide.

What?
Missy Strutter's
Angry mutters
Could fill and flood
The empty gutters.

Why?
Mr Ponders
Sits and wonders
Why the grass
Is greener yonder?

Wow, cool this poem is, Mikki! It is so Child Developmental existentialism rad. Young minds will sop this PSoup life's mysteries broth right on up. Such depth of thought/simplicity of expression. You think so out-the-box. That is a RW compliment btw. Excellent poem. Kid tested, parental approved. Love always.

Four whimsies, (Is this the way it's spelled) absolutely childishly charming. You know how I love childrens' stuff. A child might have a little trouble with the first one, but the other three would set the little mite to smiling-wonder. Love, daver
