Rack up those balls and let us heaR
Oboe notes filtered from the gazebO
Checkered tablecloth oh so pathetiC
Knee-jerk response from fuming cooK

Soda has been spilled upon my dresS
Order that plate cooked with bamboO
Light here makes things very dismaL
I would advise you get the calamarI
Do you think so? I prefer the squiD

Good job Jerry, fun to read. Its always nice to write a different form once in a while. Enjoyed.

A poem is never finished, only abandoned.

I wasn't expecting you to "give it a go," Ethern, that is your call. I merely did what I did and posted it. It's not a race or anything.

It was supposed to be "Soda has been spilled upon her dresS"


Call it a Freudian slip if you care to, luminosity.
