L Saw

Ilene went for her morning walk She saw some friends and stopped to talk The rain fell down And soaked her gown And everyone else stopped to gawk

She might have made it back but for her friends, next time she should cross the road and keep her head down lol. Tom

Hey Rico! Thank you for the funny shout-out, but I waited for the rain to stop before taking my daily walk (which does rhyme with gawk, as does New Yawk!) so no one got the chance to gawk (not that I have that much to see!) Hope you’re having your usual sunshine in Hawaii…

So the FOX News report that you won the Wet T-Shirt contest was in error? That Elsa did not have a wild time but left New York more like a kitten than a lioness? For Heaven's sake; what next?

It does not take Peter Balk to deduce that "gawk" does not rhyme with "walk" nor "talk" but, what the L, it is only an imerick, right?

Naught to worry as they are just upset by the fact that your poems get more reads than their poems!
