Default double dactyls of the week

Susan McLean and I both have new Poems of the Week up today at Light. And they're both double dactyls. What are the odds?

Congratulations, both! These are terrific -- and it was an especially good week, too.

Glad you liked them, Gail. I borrowed your use of "Tweetybird" because it fit so well in a double dactyl. Congratulations, Chris, on seeing that "Saudi Arabia" also fit the meter well.

They're good, Chris, and I think your "Grab 'Em" is even better!

Congrats to all!
