Cyn,

Not to steal Norm or Eric's thunder, or authority, but yes, you passed. Or to say it iambically:

Without a quibble or a doubt, you pass.


Do I?

Cyn --

Folk like Daniel and Eric give the word "strict" (as in form) a GOOD name. "Humor" and "strict" don't usually go together, but like your "fun" comment says, these guys make it happen.

I, too, ejoy it when both these guys are in the same poetry playground.

Hi Eric,

It’s time for me to play catch up,
here’s one of my very first lines:

“As I return to this forgotten scene”

pass, pass, pass?

haha. Don't. Failure is always an option. We will struggle through this and come out better for it. Relax, it makes learning easier if just look at it as a challenge not an obstacle.  Wink
