Yes, if we let strange thoughts lead us in life, we can become weird or dangerous or both. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K

Thank you Sandra, the form itself us pretty straightforward but when you have to keep it alphabetical it becomes quite hard. Tom.

I'm howling at this one, Tom. I think you've nailed the absurdity of statements like Shelley's. The match-up of your poem with Shelley's picture and comment is simply priceless! Bravo! Best wishes, Gershon

Thank you Gershon although the form is easy enough to do trying to keep it alphabetical and making some sort of sense is the hard part. Tom
