Though you talk from the POV of your 'sniffer' you also use other senses in your Octelle poem JLR with the
hearing that which smelled fishy.
Amusing cliche descriptions to go with your words. Well done,
cheers

As I just wrote my first ever Octelle, I am now going through reading the more skillful examples from this weeks club entry. This is a great one, written in a chatty fashion.

Congratulations! Aren't these prompts a wonderful opportunity to explore the world of words?
Comment from K.L. Rockquemore
I enjoyed reading your poem because of the imagery you created with your words. I found it a little humorous. I hope you keep writing and submitting.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
The jury's out on this Octelle form as I have seen it written in so many different ways with different metres and I couldn't detect any metre in your version, but I loved the sentiment here as we rely on our senses to smell a rat and emotional feelings give us a sense of reality and we rely on our gut instinct to make decisions, an unusual and quirky poem, love Dolly x

Thank you!
Comment from Janice Canerdy
Your poem is descriptive, clever, and entertaining. "Sniffer" is a good metaphor for the nose, possessor of that very important sense of smell.
Good rhyming

You did a great job with your octelle for the club. I enjoyed reading your response. Your words are well thought out and create great imagery. You handled the style ell. Your repeated refrain fits in smoothly.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi these cliche have been here for donkey years and used too. They come handy all the time.
But still although I love the white, I cannot contain myself into the mould of this. I need freedom. Please forgive. I mean no hurt.

No problem!
Comment from Bill Schott
This octelle, Trusting Your Senses, has the proper formatting and gives a bit of a send up for the senses and how they can keep us from erring. Neat.
