OK, so I upvoted because I didn't see 16 days--what a waste! But not the time I spent reading your poem. The poem had the feel about it of The Cremation of Same McGee. This is the sort of piece that flows from you I think, as you chuckle to yourself. It must have been a delight to write, and to edit. It was a delight to read.

The Sam McGee poem is excellently written with a complex rhyming pattern. Thanks for your comment.
I heard it first from my sister, when we were in high school (she 14 mos. older than I). I won't admit how many years ago that was, but your poem brought it back. I don't know why it did, but the wonder of writing--of art--is that it allows us to make connections across time and culture. Your poem did that for me. Gave me a moment of nostalgia, and a chuckle.
