A giant gulf 'tween 'R' and 'T'?

Thank you - it was a fun challenge.

I like where you went with this one. Losing a letter in the alphabet commonly used can be tricky. Your use of rhymes were creative and fun. Nice Job.

mystery poet, what a great entry for the contest of writing
a poem without the letter S. That must be difficult, but you
succeeded. I really enjoyed this. It's a good entry for the contest.

Thank you - the competition is fierce I think
Comment from Slythytove2
And you did very well at it. The old omitted letter prompt is good for it will make you look harder to find an equally good alphabetic remainder word. I think I'm getting the hang of the content here. Got to go- good luck with future work.

This just goes to show that you don't need "s" to create great poetry. There is no "s" in poetry, right? Really, nice job under very StreSSful conditions. Best of luck with the contest. PeaSe, Lee

Comment from Tushy
I loved this ... so hard to write this poem. I had a go but failed miserably. This is the most successful one I have read. Technically it is good, it's original and funny too. Excellent.

I love the way you have wrote it is not easy to write without one of the commonest letters yet in your writing you totally contradict yourself, you make it look so easy especially with your humour. Welldone.
Goodluck

Comment from Sally Carter
Nicely done, Mystery Writer! I have tried this contest myself in the past, so I know it's not easy.
I enjoyed your rather charming, somewhat archaic language in this poem. It was consistent throughout and works really well.
"Key" letter is clever! Hey, did you see what I did there!
Neat rhymes, including some internal ones, and an all round super entry. Good luck with it.
