Apparently there is a frenzy, nay, a clamoring, nay, a groundswell of
interest in my Gathering Poem. It will be ready shortly. Here's a morsel as
an appetizer:
Here's where the plot thickens
I wanted to check out the contra dance
But when invited to go drinking with Datto
I could hardly pass up the chance.
The saloons and the bars and the taverns
Were full. It seemed hopeless until
Datto produced his grunter/bleater
And let out with a mighty shrill.
All of a sudden things became still
You could have heard a pin
So we moved to the front of the line
And they quickly let us in.
Groundswell? Might make a good WOTD. As in: I tripped over a root and fell
and the impact of my face made the groundswell.
Happy trails,
Solar Bear
