Glad I finally followed mu curiosity to read your fascinating PANTOUM. Dont recall if I ever attempted one. The repetitions & haunting lines goes aptly with the topic. Take great care Jennifer & Jo. shalom AD

Thank-you Anil - a great comment, did a few so I could get the grasp. A talking TV, far fetched, but I enjoy writing fantasy - have you read my super hero poem - there are 4 of them? Be safe, by the way I LOVE your poetry, truly awesome. Blessings, Jennifer.

A very good pantoum. It has nice flow and it rhymes. The original form of pantoum has no rhyme requirements, but it does sound better with the flow.

Hi Sunshine smile just a little bit of fantasy and fun. Hope you are well my soul sister, think of you often, will surprise you one day soon with soup mail - not enough hours in the day, not used to doing all the house, although Elias helps me - have been a spoiled brat all my life with domestic help!! My house however is still as spick and span now as it was when we had help. An then the business. Blessings Anne-Lise, Jennifer.
