Notes About The Poem

The Bride of Frankenstein's Crop

She planted at night in the rain
While stealthily plotting her gain
It grew like a "melon"
She bragged like a felon,
"My hubby soon gets his first brain!"




Just a sample for my "Mystery Seeds" contest.

Hope you'll write for the contest, John. Some entries are humorous and others are serious. All are welcome and, so far, I like all the ones I've seen.

It's usually just a theme and a line limit for my contests, Sigrid. I like to see people write in forms they most enjoy. Thanks for reading, Carolyn
