Bill Greenwell won £25 for a brilliant poem which I'm sure you'd all like to see. Bill, post it up. I was just out of the money. Damn! I have already wasted hours on this month's effort.
Competition No 119. Scientists have been seeking the secret of the Stradivarius violin. A poem, please, in which all the lines rhyme with 'Strad'. Maximum 16 lines.

This is me saying that the thing doesn't SAY the poem has to be about the Secret of the Strad. But I suppose it might MEAN that.
