Hey, an interesting little way to go with the sundress. I bet Twiggy was wearing them a lot! I just saw that you DID read my view in france about the strippers! We were on the same wavelength for a limerick!

Hi James, you have captured the sundress's allure so well, my friend. I didn't know they first became popular in the '60s. I recall seeing my mother wearing mumus, but never a sundress when I was a kid. Quite a captivating tanka and I wish you success in the contest. Love, Carolyn
