Default Ed in the Autumn Sky

Up in the Autumn Sky, Agent Ed Shacklee shows once more that he is way too bright and far too smart.

Delightful villanelle. It goes round and round, but with a difference.

Excellent, Ed. You should go to the next DC Science Cafe and read this! ~,:^)

Super stuff, Ed.

I have a new monthly poetry group at my house, in which I'm teaching the craft of writing in form to three novices.
On Monday we're looking at villanelles so, with your permission, I'll feature this one ...and boast that you and I know each other!
