Gershon Wolf October 24, 2018 at 9:24 AM 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

Anisha Dutta October 23, 2018 at 1:19 AM WITTY. Enjoyed. all the best.
