Notes About The Poem

For Bitesize Contest No100 sponsored by Line Gauthier

A Night on the Square

A circle and a triangle went out to take the air 
one moonlit night upon Piccadilly Square,  
and to every heartbeat pound and every footfall plunk, 
the triangle said, "thunk a thunk a thunk".  
The circle said not a word, so silently did she move, 
ever good and graceful, she had nothing to prove.

Haha, thanks Beau! As I think about it, adding more sides to a triangle, might improve its sound a bit.
