Hi Mustangpatty,

You have done a wonderful job writing this difficult poetry form. At least it seems difficult to me but reading your words makes it look easy! I have a little dog too and she is my constant companion. Well done. Blessings, chey

    Thank you for reading and the generous review. Animal prose and poetry are my niche, and I will continue to work them. This endeavor of writing different forms from the book I have may be my undoing, but it is fun. I appreciate your kind words. ~patty~

What a beautiful, well written tribute to your new puppy, Harley. He is adorable, I bet not always as angelic as he appears in this picture knowing that Jack Russells have lots of energy. Very unique and proficient verse.

Unless you the sole scooper. LOL I did enjoy the poem and its form. In one sense it describes that puppy quality, but also want an adult dog lends to your experience. Nicely done.

I can't imagine anyone doing this form any better than you have, but it's so restrictive in it's requirements, that nothing of any real literary interest can come out of it. This is more an exercise in voocabulary building than in poetry. I'd give you an "A" for the former, but not for the latter.

    Thank you for reading and the generous review. Your comments are greatly appreciated. I am in agreement with you in regards to the literary interest of this poem, but I am attempting to do new kinds of poetry based on a book I purchased with 42 'classic forms.' ~patty~

A sweet little tribute to a cute little guy. I work with third graders, and we introduce this type of poem for them, usually using antonyms. I love all the adjectives you have used to describe the love of a puppy.
