Ha, ha! Love your comment, Paula. My pen thinks I pay overtime. Au contraire! I actually will be docking that old ballpoint for depriving me of sleep! lol. Thanks for noticing my placement in the contest, and Best wishes, Gershon

I am amazed. What's your secret? How did you manage to wander through my imagination? Sounds like you found some 'solid ground.' Most people just 'fly right through,' as my imagination has been thought to be empty for eons now. ~ Starship Enterprise

Gershon, just where in Chicago are you seeing cavernous castles with carnal characters cuddling? You must be reading Brit Lit again, lol! I loved how your titles stayed in character with the alliterative theme, but used words not in the poems. Enjoyed this throughout and not surprised to see you earning a win. Congratulatory clapping commendations, chap!

John, thanks for the in-depth comment, and (yes), I've been reading 'The Victorian' again. (Snicker, snicker). Congrats on your win too, my friend! Joy and Light, Gershon

Thanks, Krish. Jenish has just saved me from contest perdition... Can't win for losing (usually) these days! And congrats to you on your win in the contest too! ~ Besotted, but no beau! lol

Carnal characters? I want to know more lol. Well composed Gershon. Good luck Tom

Tom! Adjust those reading glasses! I typed 'C A R N I V A L.' You gotta install 'Dirty Mind Check.' It's the latest software package from S&X Software, Inc. heh, heh. Thanks, gw

I wanna say, "Atta boy, Gershon!" You've written a trio of verses filled with alliteration.

Gershon Wolf
Date: 7/24/2020 8:30:00 AM

Well, you've just written it, Jenna!! Way to go!! Thanks, gw

Your alliterative poem is enjoyable my friend,

Gershon Wolf
Date: 7/24/2020 8:29:00 AM

Alliteration almost always attracts affirmation... No?! :) gw

For sure; nothing wrong with carnal characters. Hell! -- Where would any of us be without them!? Great one, Gershon.

Gershon Wolf
Date: 7/24/2020 8:28:00 AM

Hahahahaha! Although many of us have trouble envisioning our parents as 'carnal characters.' My father, for example, were extremely modest and my mother demure. How they ever had three children is beyond me... And so it goes... I imagine my kids feel the same way about me! :) gw
