Smiling won't make her un-happy
she'll never be a nun .
Her habit's are loose and flappy
if you'll excuse the pun .
Laughing does not make her gloomy ,
she often will profess ,
cavorting 'round within my mind ,
a poetic goddess .
Singing does not quell her spirit ,
nor cause her to be sad ,
like peals of bells I can hear it ,
though some may think me mad .
She brings to me no small comfort ,
with words that flow as wine ,
her name do I now dare to blurt ,
do jelly-fish have spines ?
If I remove the habit part,
she may not take offence ,
but that would not be very smart ,
the situations tense .
These litotes are a tricky thing ,
perhaps I should avoid ,
and P.D.V. if you read this ,
I hope you're not annoyed .

Not Bad!
You made writing this look not-so-difficult!
But I know it sure wasn't easy to do! (Ha-ha)
