Hi John, Martin, Jim,
Thanks for enjoying the pantoum!
Yes, John; I think a lot of people might go to fowl and hens rather than pigs, lol. But in the context of a little book of pet poems, with plenty of guinea-images, hopefully it'd be okay :-)

Thanks, Martin! Well, as you might imagine, I've had plenty of opportunities to observe guinea-behaviour over the years. Thanks for liking the rhymes and meter too :-)

Jim, I'm happy you like it too. I've written quite a lot of things about guineas, including 'The Secret Diary of Truffle Teague', in which Truffle has her babies. Super-sweet, lol.
Well, I've started to think about the bull-response (cf. John's poem on Met) and I'll probably start researching tomorrow :-)
Best wishes,
Fliss
