Sexy Syntax and Vanishing Verbs

SEXY SYNTAX and vanishing verbs
    by V. Anderson-Throop

Syntax , syntax
I love you.
From your by to your through.
Syntax ,syntax
You are lost--
Like a letter in the post.
When I scream to find you there
I just look to from and where

 Verbs tried grabbing my delight--
 lost agreement gave me fright.

Alas, true lovers of fair words
Long return for horse and swords.

I'm not very good at syntax or verbs (as you have already noticed) sexy or vanishing... but more interestingly... I sent you a soupmail yesterday which apparently has also vanished! So I just sent you another one... Hope it gets through this time... Terry... if this vanishes too, well ... weel I guess you won't receive it...
