Greg Hladky Poet Quintain (English)

Duke of York Uncorked

Prince Andrew in the press is tried, but he denied
both far and wide, as Duke of York (soon Earl?),
a train of thought upon the side,
a rain of sweat upon a girl.
Please, cork that Duke before I swirl!

Caren Krutsinger December 4, 2019 at 12:33 AM Funny! Good luck in the contest. Greg Hladky December 4, 2019 at 1:37 AM Thanks, Caren. Just realized an earl is lesser than a duke, so I had to revise the poem. Hope it still works!
