~Rhopalic Madness~

me...
I bravely
meet challenge happily
to compose rhopalics successfully
wedge verses following complicated methodology
prove very cerebral...difficulty initiating irritability
now seeking simplistic literature alleviating uncharacteristic hypersensitivity
yet finding refreshing tranquility ineffectual idealogically
am seeing competent psychologist professionally
a speedy remedy necessary
for mental sanity
of crazy
me...

Would you wedge me in, please? I've learned a lot in my old age, but when reading little tidbits like this, I realize that...

I still have a lot to learn!

Well done Vicki!

Marge-
   LOL @ the 'versy-go-round'!ROFL!
   You're too much, my friend!  
   Believe it or not, this was kind
   of fun to write...kind of...LOL
   And the headache didn't last too long.LOL
   Thanks for the A+!  Coming from you, that'a
   even better than extra credit!
   Love ya, sweet friend.

Cindi-
   Nope...no cheating in MizNanners' class! LOL
   You're on your own...and you did just fine!
   Love and hugs

MizNanners-
   I'm sure you'll do just fine, teach!
   Glad this one earned an A+.
   Thanks much!

mirror man-
   LOL...nope...you're not alone!
   Glad you like!

VAS-
   Thanks much...glad you enjoyed!

Lady In White-
   Always room to 'wedge you in', my friend.
   I'm learning too..and having fun doing it!
   Glad you liked this one.

Rindercella-
   I haven't found much info about this
   style either.  The only rule I know is
   that each word in a line should have
   one more syllable than the previous word.
   You'll find info about it in the
   poetry workshop as well...

   Hope that helps.
   Thanks so much for the kind reply.

   hugs to all,
   ~vicky
