Notes About The Poem

Brown's Descent, or the Willy-Nilly Slide by Robert Frost - Poems | poets.orgImage result for pictures of a man sliding down a hill holding a lanternThis is based totally on the poem above. I did not fall on the ice or snow for we have not had any and if we did my children would not let me go outside. LOL

Please look up the poem by Robert Frost if you can using the link above. 

Willy-Nilly Slide

I like Brown did a Willy-Nilly Slide As I went out to feed the cat fish fried A dish so unusual On a frozen day jewel Right leg went left and left right, I did glide

Eve, I think you can write one that is not really humorous but according to the form's description it is better to have some humor. Thanks for stopping by. Sara
