Sanket Jain November 30, 2017 at 7:44 AM Oh my god! Superb poem. In CBSE books too, there is a poem on snake like yours. I will surely give this link to my students to see. New way of expressing excellent ideas by a verse. I too am developing Monorhyme. I need appreciation from you if you are free and feel to do so. Be blessed and keep reviewing Pari Style poems. Mick Talbot November 30, 2017 at 10:17 AM Wow, love your response, thanking you most kindly. Honoured I am that you find it worthy of a link to your students, that is quite a compliment, thank you! Not sure of 'Pari Style poems', is that a way of saying poetry in fashion, regardless I review all manner of poetry. On/of the latter I find that re. formats there is far to much bending of the rules, tantamount to breaking them, a topic for another day. Many thanks Sanket :)
