This nonet--or mononet--is brilliantly penned, and even tapers properly, as a nonet is supposed to. I couldn't make mine turn out that well. I wish you best of luck in the contest.

This meets the contest requirements splendidly as you deliver a technically sound Nonet Poem with correct line and syllable count throughout. The content is beautifully executed as your use of powerful imagery is tempered by the simplicity of the message itself. Good luck in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.

Hi Bill. I like this one. The name dubbed by Phyllis is a good definition of what's normally called a monorhyme. Unirhyme fits, too. Good luck in the contest. Marilyn

Comment from Joan E.
I am amazed you were able to employ mono-verse rhyme in your Nonet. I was also pleased you were able to showcase a lady's "power"! Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Comment from Earl Corp
This was probably the best nonet poetry I have ever read on this site. It rhymes, makes sense, and it tells a truth all men should know. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Mistydawn
This is a well-written poem, interesting, has a nice rhyme with a fun flow. Your word choice sounds like it comes from experience. especially the part about the soul-piercing eyes. I thought he's been the dog house a time or two. Nice job.

Comment from Brett Matthew West
If one suggestion may be offered, perhaps reconsider and take the spacing out between the lines. So true, a smart man knows how ingenious women are. Well done.

Absolutely. Shame on any man who thinks that he is pulling the wool over those piercing eyes that look into the very soul of a man, extracting the truth behind his feeble attempt to deceive her.

Comment from Phyllis Stewart
She's wise, guys. And you're a wise guy for seeing it. Very nicely done. The mono-rhyme is a great addition, and it fits in perfectly. This should be a special type of nonet--the mononet. :)
