Strawberry jelly Nailing jelly to a fence See bright colour shines Its impossible Red liquid, has stained the fence The nail is alone

Love it! I am going to try this...and here I thought that I had already seen and tried most everything! Which is smarter, the nail or the Jelly? The hammerer seems befuddled to say the least. Great imagery for deeper thought.

Dont bother sir, it doesnt work. Eating the jelly is a much better idea. Thank you for your comment.

Had to delete my poem to remove sponsor's name Contest name and date. Was not aware that they were not allowed any more. Copied comments as I didnt want to lose them.

This one said it had already been read. So I figured it may have already been disqualified. I still have L plates on when it comes to contests. But Truth with this one I am not sure what Dilly wants. lol So it was probably all for nothing LOL

Speaks Volumes Date: 6/9/2023 12:09:00 AM I am not sure if I hit the nail on the head with this one, as I'm not quite sure what Dilly wants, but thanks for you comment Linda. -
