But, Libby, with only a few minor additions, yours can be beautiful too without any change in meaning...
Poetry: So hard!
Some make it so beautiful
Mine just sounds like soft
Warm horse-apples falling on
Clean newly-spread straw
Sorry, that was a brief trip down memory lane. When I was in the USAF years ago, we used black grease pencils to write quick notes and reminders on Plexiglas desk protectors - and we wrote what we called "Plexiglas Poetry". One person would write the first line of a limerick. The next person to come along would add one more line, etc. We didn't produce any publishable classics, but we did have fun. I wonder if that would make a suitable "game" on GA.
Looking forward to what the anthology produces.
