Ralph, thank you so much. I appreciate the kind words. And MY congrats to Gail, Rachel and Chris--well-earned.

Tom

PS Wendy, Susan, Joan and Jim: thank you as well.

PS2: Thank you David. All of the reading I did in Sonnet Central's prosody/articles section helped tremendously. It's a wonderful resource.

Just wanted to add that I too enjoyed the skill and spirit shown by all. Thought Rachel's "fiasco au naturel" (oops, that isn't right, but guess it's clear enough!) especially clever and fun.
