How cute! I love this poem that has a very obvious rhyme scheme of aab ccb. There was one stanza that didn't have a partner, but it still reads so nicely. I also like poems that make me giggle, and this one has that. Each stanza had 6-6-9 syllables, except the one that has "obviously" unless one pronounces it with 3 syllables, which many people do.

thank you, ma'am for your kind words and the lovely 6!! Much appreciated. I'm so glad you liked it.
Well, yes, ob-vious-ly, or actually it has four, ob-vi-ous-ly. How many syllables do you get out of it? I'm grinning, here, just wondering, not being rude or anything.
Anyway, thanks for reading and commenting!

I initially read "obviously" as four syllables. But then I realized it didn't fit the meter, so I had to re-read that line! LOL! It's like a brain puzzle.
