Soft, the white dove
  Coo  coo  coo
Booms crusty walrus --
  Coo-coo Ca-choo

Super senryu
  Marvelous monoku
Thrum go the comments

I absolutely love this. I am actually making some notes, hoping to write something in a similar cadence because it made me happy as I read it.

I must have expropriated the 4 lads rhythm, straight from Liverpool. Just exercising my American privilege, I guess. :) gw

Here's to silly sounds sometimes, John. Thanks for the friendly comment. I needed that too! ~ Mutual Uplifting Association... :) gw

I almost choked on my cuppa, this morn Gershon, laffing as I read this witty bit of light verse! Bob

--But you came through in the clutch, i.e., didn't choke! Your comments are always a hit with me, Bob. They clear the bases. ~ Cubs win! Cubs win! :) gw
