Jan, thanks for the nice comment. I was trying a new form and it did not turn out quite the way I wanted, too vague.

I liked this till I got to the last words. I had to read the others' comments to get it. hahaha

Yeah, Andrea, I know. I was trying a new form, Epulaeryu (Didactic because it teaches). It seemed to fit for the contest but I used too vague of a reference for my three syllable line.

Your are not silly at all, too vague of a reference it seems. Thanks Eileen.
