Jayne, My compliments on your dress sense and little black poem. All the best for the comp!

But, re your more recent ditty...

Keeping to a proper rhyme scheme was hard with my entry,

For once, I sent it in time, though I'm not hopeful of success at all.
Lucy has lots of other good 'uns to choose from.
Mind you, it's better than nothing -- mayB,
but maybe not. OK, so I cheated...
...do I care?
Jayne, O Jayne,
Exemplar stoic!
‘Cheated’?
Dreaded word echoic!
Can it be?
Eye, shall it see,
Enmired in textspeak ploy,
Your poem?
May I not implore you,
Undo
Obloquy
You’d bring upon you-
Urgently renounce your crime,
Edit that verse one more time:
End Line Seven... Eight, begin it...
Truly this time? Do, this minute!
