Susan Ashley Date: 10/23/2020 9:38:00 AM Your clever intellect and talented pen never lets you down, John. Yes! Your poem did bring a smile! :)) I'm so glad you decided "to chu on it a while" and pen a beautiful minichu. You are wonderful in the short forms, my dear poet.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 10/22/2020 6:05:00 PM regarding the oo in front of the stinking poem of mine, I think it had something to do with what the sponsor wanted of us, or maybe I could not get my poem to come up under its title so I put 2 o's in front. I was too lazy to change it back and it still stays that way. haha Login to Reply John Watt Date: 10/22/2020 8:41:00 PM Oo!

Andrea Dietrich Date: 10/22/2020 6:05:00 PM ok, now THIS is super super clever. I know I used try as one of my main words. but to think of the CHU on it line that was brilliant!

Michelle Faulkner Date: 10/20/2020 8:58:00 PM I like the play on 'chu' on it, seems like a form you would do well in :) Login to Reply John Watt Date: 10/20/2020 10:33:00 PM You are too kind. I feel pretty insecure with almost all of the short forms. Trying to do more just to get practice!
