David I don't think you answered Debra's question. What I hear you saying is EVERY line must start with a CONSANANT. ..BUT It is possible to go [con/vow/con/vow/con] that's 5 words..which is OK BUT the next line must still start with a CON..is this correct? Please check that mine is OK for you?

I thought I had it, then I entered it, then I read your rules, then I thought I DIDN'T DO IT RIGHT, then I removed it, then I checked your own example (again :) ) and then I thought HUH? I DID IT RIGHT? then I came back here. LOL. Okay... So... the first word of the first line MUST be a consonant (check) and the last word of the first line MUST start with a vowel? I wrote it alternating which left the last word on the last line as a consonent? AWK! Your example (which I loved!) goes back and forth (I think, I'm so tired that I'm fair loopy-- tell me my youngster will eventually sleep through the night! Waaaaaaaaaaaa) Anyways, left a message on your example as well. This near sapped me. LOL!

Dear Lord Man, LOL, my jaw is somewhere below my desk and I'm thinking that you were a schoolmarm in another life... hee hee. Not sure whether to give you two thumbs up or to chase you around your front parlour with a watergun filled with vinegar! LOL!!! Are you sure you wouldn't like us to do this while patting our heads and rubbing our tummies? Well, enough of joshing with ya! Methinks I MUST give this a go. Cause I like banging my head on my desk while I write. Makes me a better person. ;-) Hugs to you and the Mrs. --- From a bemused, soon to be confused, Cyndi
