Many went to great lengths
and much effort was spent
to produce super ruse
used to fool Dr. Moose.

To succeed they would need
to believe he'd agree
to review and improve
certain "oohs" that he used.

By the time they devised
one to try  he'd surmised
their intent to invent
some new impediment.

Thus it was on the bus
with not much of a fuss
that a message was sent
through telepathy yet,

that he'd heard of this word
and preferred "assonance".

Work done by an "A" student, moose...about as exact as assonance is, assonancially speaking.

In other words, ya done good.

Of  course, Doc. You can move on the alliteration, second of the terrible trio.

Alison,
Thanks for saying so, but I don't know about "good", I think it has more to do with persistence. I've been here approximately nine years, prior to that I'd dabbled with poetry for about five more. Hopefully I've learned a little something in that time. I've actually come to think of myself as a "perpetual" student, there's always something more to learn. Thanks again.
Doc

Balladeer,
Hey, who are you callin' "alliterate"? We'll just see about that!
Doc
