Outside the birds sing a happy song and on a snowy branch they sway more than one bird but a throng singing a morn' song gay oh, sing all day long while squirrels play voices strong! Snow day yea! _________________________________ November 5, 2019 Poetry/Nonet/On a Snowy Branch Copyright Protected ID, 19-1193-914-02 All Rights Reserved. Written under Pseudonym.

Constance, I really like your poem. I understand he wanted all end rhymes and that is the only reason this is not super high. I actually did not realize that rule either, but i just happened to do it that way!! Congrats, dear heart.

Wiishkobi Ode (Constance), this is a terrific an wonderful poem. I am so sorry for NOT reaching out to you earlier for the rules of my contest. My apologies my dear friend. All the last words had to rhyme, and I know, it was my fault for not specifying that. Anyway, as you can see I gave higher placements for those who did. Remember, it's not the rules that really count, it's the message that you convey that really matters. Congratulaions on your fine poem...and a fave for me :) Charlie

Charlie thank you for the contest. I had so much fun writing this poem even though I missed the every line rhymes thing. I appreciate the 4th placement and your sweet comment and FAV!. I just love those birdies on the branch !
