Comma Coma

COMMA COMA The difference between a cat and a comma, as you know, Is that one has claws at the end of its paws, While the other has a pause at the end of a clause, But let the comma not be confused with a coma, Sometimes induced in my wife from my socks’ aroma, And never confuse a comma with an apostrophe, For in this competition it would be a catastrophe, And, as we all know, a comma sits on the line, But an apostrophe floats up in the air just fine. When you reach twelve commas, it’s time to go. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . Written by Sydney Peck Entered in Russell Sivey’s Contest Tons of comma fun!

Excellent presentation. I Love how your poem is part of the whole idea of the comma. I saw another guy here today doing the same thing, including the theme of punctuation marks in his poem. I would score this one high!
