When-Who-What-Why

When? Master Buffoon To wed Mistress May Lune Raced to the church in July On the day set for June. Who? Mr Snide's Contempt and pride Prompts him to pinch Then run to hide. What? Missy Strutter's Angry mutters Could fill and flood The empty gutters. Why? Mr Ponders Sits and wonders Why the grass Is greener yonder?

Wow, cool this poem is, Mikki! It is so Child Developmental existentialism rad. Young minds will sop this PSoup life's mysteries broth right on up. Such depth of thought/simplicity of expression. You think so out-the-box. That is a RW compliment btw. Excellent poem. Kid tested, parental approved. Love always.
