LOL, Nancy, that was wonderful!!! A real corker of a poem. I laughed out loud when I read the last line, I don't think I've ever read a poem like this from you. Brilliant, Nancy, you must write more of these. Hugs, xsx Sandra.

LOL,Now who's the sly one? Excellent word-choice and rhyme-scheme make your farmer's daughter's tale come alive for this reviewer. Ah, the lovers' tales that blossom in Spring-time!

Lol thanks for making me chuckle with your amusing piece of poetry Honey. I like the way you make it sound as if she's talking with a dialect as in me pa sprang into action.

LOL! You've written a classic song here! I can just see them gathered round the bar singing this! Love that last line: He didn't touch me knickers! Bravo!

    I am so happy you like it Phyllis. I think I will change out to that last picture. What do you think. I had so much fun writing this I just had to have the perfect picture. That Tess looked like an owl. LOL Thanks for that six! Hugs. Nancy

    I agree. I think the goat and girl was the best since it has high resolution and will show up more clearly.

:) this had me smiling all the way though and love that this bonny lass remained chaste despite all the rumors. Pretty clever way to catch her man, I'd say. Loren

That was a lot of fun, Honeycomb. You even got me to chuckle out loud, which isn't easy. The last line is a home run. A very engaging poem the whole way.

Honeycomb: So glad that you have a great father with a gun! Kids now a days need a dad that cares. I like the village gossips tell the tale..brings forth winks and snickers. Old Finn has to repent and plow, work now, for his bride. Well written and congrats to the awards!

I am taking Brooke's children poetry class in October. My husband got mad at the bill, oh well, I will enjoy the class and pay the bill too. My husband works hard as a grocery manager. He thinks that I sit on my butt typing all day!!!

Enjoy your day! flylikeaneagle
