Jan,
Loved your mini-monoverse. Dogs can be so much fun as they
run. They definitely do provide us with love and affections. They don't ask much in return. Good luck.

Very funny lines and light story of Gwen and Mac. Very descriptive the adventures of those two mighty fun pups who like ice creams and telephones..

barbara, I think you're supposed to see two verse sets of five lines each with each verse with the same rhyme pattern -- aaaaa/bbbbb -- if there are more verses, they are supposed to be two more per set -- that's all I know -- love, jan

jan,
that makes sense. i might try it at some point. i always want to try new stuff but need to write the names down with the explanations. i know someone will want to know.
love,
barbara

Hi Rdfrdmom, dogs are truly a blessing. The little beasties make no bones about love, or trust, or treats . . . and don't complain about their jobs.
This form does seem to lend itself to pet poetry. :-) D.

How did I miss this Jan??? Anyway, the voting booth opens in a few days, so I thought I better take a look and was amazed I had not read this. It's charming. I loved it. These monoverses were kind of fun, don't you think?

I loved it, actually, although I found them more involved than I thought they would be. May try my hand at another one in the future. thanks for stopping by, Judian. love, jan

This will not be an easy contest to judge! I like the length, the subject matter is interesting and tells the story well. A strong contender.
Sincerely,
Curt

Hi Jan,
I enjoyed your poem very much. Reminds me of my two spoiled babies. They quickly become family members. Your poem describes their actions and loving nature beautifully. Thank you for sharing. Sorry to be reviewing so late but have had a bout of the flu. God bless and best wishes!
