I'm not sure if Merriam-Webster could have taken you any further along the monorhyme trail if you had come up with more lines for your story:)
You attracted this reader with your whimsical story and your efforts to make nearly every conceivable "ate" ending fit into it. Thanks for sharing.

While your poem is delightfully entertaining in and of itself, it made me think of when I taught preschool and I recited silly verses snd had the kids fill in a rhyming word. Thanks for the memory.

It Happened Just Like That...
by Y. M. Roger

Hello, Yvette,

I love the presentation. Beautiful color scheme.

It's a fun poem about your favorite subject...fantasy! Nice monorhyme.

After all, fantasy is your expertise and we can all use a little magic in our lives just about now.

Well done!

What a delightfully written poem. A broad smile appeared on my face as I read, just like that! Fantasy should be a regular ingredient in our lives, not as escapism but to make life more interesting. Thanks for sharing. Good luck!

'It Happened Just Like That', is an extremely well-written and delightfully descriptive piece. Penned with craft and skill. This talented poet has told it as she/he sees it. Good luck with the contest! My fingers are crossed for you.

What a fun poem! And cleverly done in monorhyme. You convinced me. I'm sure it happened just exactly like that!!

Thank you for looking at my poem, and I wanted to find out what you have written. I'll have to check out your novels too! I used to be immersed in fantasy/sci-fi, now it's mystery, but I can pivot.

Keep writing!

Love this dragon poem, you take the reader to another place. I like the mention of Smaug, it was a surprise. Excellent rhyming of words with a smooth flow of lines that adds to the feel and image of the dragons. Excellent work here.
