this is cute....not familiar with the form but guessing you use 4 words to build off of...kind of witty like a limerick!

Exactly right. You build off of four rhymed adjectives, although there can be two different rhymes. As for the limerick effect, that's a bit of a gw insignia, truth be told. Thanks for the feedback, Sandra. Much appreciated. Best wishes, gw
