I looked through the comments on this one, and I found it interesting that the first stanza didn't seem to raise the hackles of any of our poetry soup sisters... As for the entire poem, I found it enjoyable and as pleasant as the (summer) day is long! Best wishes, Gershon

Very clever, Charles. So this is what Mark was seeking for his contest. (I couldn't be sure.) You have taken a difficult form and created a delightful series of couplets! Best wishes in the contest, Carolyn
