Enjoyed, Esther! Marzipan is one of my favourite words. And do all mothers drown kittens? Is it part of the job description, do you think?

Well done, indeed!

Hi Esther,

What wonderful words! I don't think I've ever seen 'obfuscate', 'coruscate' or 'adumbrate' before, in a poem!

And I love any mention of geckos as I have two pet ones, who are now eighteen years old. Lovely poems indeed. Congratulations.

Jayne

Thank you so much, all.

John and Ed, I don't know what I'd do for an encore.

Jayne, I put skinks in my poems whenever I can.
