Did you deliberately not rhyme the last line Debra? Or is the word you wanted to use not appropriate? Ha ha ha, I loved this write, it is clever and inventive, great rhymes and lots of fun, a talented write, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Lol! Love your humorous take on this and I don't know how these things happen. Perhaps it is in your portfolio but not in the book? So glad you checked up and counted your mischievous chapters!!

I saw it too when I'm clicked onto your book. Oh my! So... two today, tommorow and Tuesday should bring you to 29? Is that correct? Your rhyming and content are great! If this is poor the rest of us are in big trouble! Just saying....

Fingers crossed, my friend.
Sending you my best today as always.

It must be frustrating indeed to realize that one of your poems is missing. You did a good job with this "replacement," though. I like that you compared your missing poem to a hiding child. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

I can easily relate to this experience of losing a chapter. In my case, recklessness. I accidentally hit the DELETE key. Rewriting was not fun. This snappy poem, however, brought a smile to my face. Rod

Oh dear. How awful that must have been for you. If I discovered that I was missing one at this late stage I'd just lay down and die. I laughed out loud at the good rhyme that slipped uninvited into my mind for the last line. Naughty you or naughty me? kay

Hi Kay :) I think we're both guilty of being a little naughty!
Thank you for your feedback.

I love these fun images and, don't worry the sentiments expressed resonate very clearly with this reader (am still looking for the front door keys!) The meter is so good I didn't even notice the loss of rhyme in the last stanza (until now!) I also recognise how our posts have a striking resemblance to our children and need to be watched and encouraged/promoted. Quite exhausting! Think you've more than made up for your hiccup and I'm sure you'll be forgiven! Take care, Debbie

-Very nice artwork and presentation, Debra.
-I'm sorry you lost a poem, but this one is also good.
-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-I like your idea of a head count and
the second verse about where this poem went
and what it looked like.
-I like how you changed the last verse
to go along with your idea about the replacement.
-Kudos to you for writing it!
