A wonderful form and a beautiful poem, William:) might try your contest:) the syllable count you mention here and that on the contest page differs... I guess the right one is 2 4 6 8 6 4 2

Thanks, Jo, I had not noticed that I had made an error on the syllable count that had shown as 2-4-6-8-4-6-2, I corrected it as should be -- Syllables for the contest are 2-4-6-8-6-4-2. I appreciate your considerations and the heads-up my friend, Aloha!
