Welcome to PIP, my wayward friends
where proper posting all depends
on etiquette and certain rules
this worshop's an "informal" school
wherein our "teacher" Balladeer alone decides
on where it is each posting that you make resides

One must assume that since you're new
such subtleties eluded you
assignments which we pactice here
get handed out by Balladeer
and subsequently graded on the "workshop curve"
( though some would say more harshly than what most deserve )

I hope these guidelines serve you well
should you decide to stay a spell
I think you'll find this friendly place
will suit you fine , but just in case
there shouldn't be any reason you'd have to dispute
these words of welcome crafted and wrapped up to boot.

Alison,
Thanks. I usually check in daily and kept waiting for Balladeer to transfer their poems to open ( as he usually does )then decided since they were still here, to have a little fun with it. Hopefully all is well
with Deer and he's just taking it easy recovering. All the same I may have to send out a search party if he doesn't show up soon.
Doc

BTW, this is not an example of "wrapped refain" as while it does follow the syllable counts, rhyme scheme, and six line stanza format, it does not repeat the first four syllables verbatim ( thought I might smoke Balladeer out of hiding with that one, lol )
