Ah, Steve, what's lamentable is being deprived of a six for you. Yeah, Tom, let's penalize writers for being consistently deserving the highest rating. Bad, Steve! You're too good, Steve! Stop it, Steve!
Sorry. A pet peeve.
Absolutely delightful, right down to the appalling pun.
Love the asides and the inspired, quirky rhymes. I also believe there are some cheeky jokes just under the surface.
Roebuck and Sear got a good snort out of me.
I'm thinking: Like pancakes (the batter)
This is terrific, Steve. Remind me not to enter anymore Poem/Story contests unless you're in a coma.
Peace, Lee

I'll take a virtual six from you any day.
I seem to have touched a few American funny-bones with 'Roebuck and Sear' which is odd because I really know nothing about them...
I started scribbling this piece of nonsense for the Fable competition - and then found out it was closed... Duh!

You would have won the Fable competition, but as it turns out, I did. I'm not at all sorry you missed the deadline. Lee

Oh noooo! I'm groaning out loud! You got me, this is very funny. Your rhyme and meter both lend to the fun of this poem. Excellent finish.
