Poem is humorous with all those names, but I do get your point. I think it's a bit overdone, though... LOL
Thanks for sharing,

Comment from MJMuraco
Your poem is excellent and thought provoking. I hate gossip, much of which goes on in my workplace. I am not popular because I walk away and don't engage in it. I loved the creative names that used for the characters. The best was Mrs. Tell a spin. I appreciate all of your quotes at the end. What a wonderful piece of work!

Comment from Adri7enne
Great looking fence. I could use one just like that on my western border.
I gave up trying to figure out who said what to whom and just acknowledged that people gossip. You had a lot to say on the subject. Long poem, long author's notes. Obviously, you felt your opinions on this subject gave you an opportunity to do a little good natured preaching. Ah, well,we all have our days. Great artwork.

Comment from Sixteezkid
I laughed out loud with all those great names you gave them all. Loved when you wrote, "Coffee's on the brew, sit right down Meddle".
Isn't it the truth! Great moral story, for sure. This was a delight to read and your message is an excellent one.
Thanks for sharing,
Sue

Comment from Judian James
Exactly as you claimed, "a whimsical tale with a moral" I really enjoyed this. It brought several laughs but also causes one to think long and hard. Your final lines were most excellent!! well done

Hi jlsavell.
Well done writer friend. I like your moral here, but I am a wee bit nosey. LOL. Nicely and cleverly written. I like the quotes added in notes too. Fondly, Rebecca
