I am surprised that there is another word for Morse code. Is it a secret word that was used so as not to raise Morse code flags. Just wondering. You are creative as usual. Good job.

I'm not certain where iddy-umpy comes from, Debbie. The book tells an interesting story, but doesn't answer that question. Many thanks, Craig

Hello, I'm glad for the author notes with this one as I didn't have a clue what it meant and you do a great job of fitting it into a poem. Nice one!! I saw no errors and this series of poems is one I'd recommend to every writer, and thanks for sharing it, Ana.

Well shoot--, Hallmark's loss. I've got a rip-snorter about a boy standing on a burning deck, and another masterpiece about a guy from Nantucket they'll never see now! :)
