Pointedly Pertinent

Our mothers warned us not to point As early as the age of two. She told us there are better ways To insure our own point of view. Our teacher used a long pointer To show us where and how to look And taught us to use a marker On important points of the book. One must have a sense of humor To get the point of a good joke. Using the pointed end of stick To make your point, will but provoke. Point Clear, Point Acme and others Are the scenic names of some towns. Living in these points of interest Will surely bring more ups than downs. There is nothing more important In percentages than the point. A point criminally misplaced Might bring you ten years in the joint.

LOL You gave me quite a giggle with that last line, Joyce. You covered a myriad of "points" here, my friend, and might I just add, point well taken! Best wishes for success in the contest. Love, Carolyn
