Hi Don

Hahahahha! Is that REALLY YOU? I must be getting old, I have the odd days like this ... for fun and an excuse! I'm pleased you asked me to pop in. Well worth the experience. A great piece for the contest. I'm never sure about the 'recommended (but not required) start ... every stanza, "You are ...".

I hope your wife doesn't stay visiting too long ... you might forget yourself altogether. Often best to let the other half do the thinking! hee hee! I better mention your rhyme -- done well, and the quirkiness of your poem is just fun. I wish you the best of luck in the contest. Hugs - Lovi xoxo

    Welcome back, Lovinia! Thanks for giving me another shot to impress you, and that "quirky" remark!

    The poem is fictional, although the image is me.

    As to the prompts, when they [ndicate that something is optional, except, perhaps, in the cash prize contests, I treat it as optional, literally, because I assume the voters will be influenced more by the quality of the work, and that's all I focus on in those situations.

    The contest ended last week, and my entry finished second. Thanks again, Lovinia. Come again!

I like the contemplation in this poem by someone who is unable to make decisions. The picture is hilarious, I can't stop laughing at the shoes! Your poem is very well written with a nice flow and excellent rhyming. The theme of the poem is funny. Good job, good luck with the contest.

    Sage, your comments are more rewarding to me than you might imagine! You always appreciate what I set out to do, and even pick up on the nuances. I think you may be one of those unusual fanstorians who are on my wave length. Thanks for this excellent review, and all of your others!
