smiley - rofl The measure of how funny this is: I choked on my sandwich when I got to the word 'glint'.

Thanks for the wry observation.

Evening

you may indeed - pleased to hear you liked it.

N.B. needs a minor edit - may want to change "where" to "what" on second to last line - or, alternatively, change "Is" to "There's" on the last line

Personally, I think the latter works better

smiley - cool

I agree, I think the 'where' is fine, and 'there' is better. smiley - ok

How come a poem that appears in smiley - thepost is now showing 'This Guide Entry has been hidden, because it contravenes our House Rules'smiley - huh

Yes, the version in smiley - thepost is still there, I just wondered why this original version has been hidden. As there's nothing here, there's little point in keeping it in the Writing Workshop, but fortunately smiley - thepost is unaffected.

P.S. You may end up with me poking my head in a few of these conversations, looks like I was subscribed to the AWW for the whole of the time I was away...

You're more than welcome – I hope my dredging up old conversations isn't too annoying. There are some real gems in the AWW, but I'm only commenting on the ones that I think don't belong there as otherwise I'd create a giant muddle.
