Good one. I can perfectly understand what his wife is saying and I agree with her. This is so funny and so are your notes. I guess I have (obviously) always misunderstood what Hamlet was saying. I'm sure ol' Will S. would get a kick out of your interpretation.

This is a funny exchange that seems to fit a recollection of my dad getting all spun up over something similar. Confusing and a chuckle to read. Nicely presented in the dialog format.

I loved your funny poem. It was filled with humor. And the accuracy of the message was very funny. That's almost the way it is with me and my husband right now. The forgetting and the tangling of the words in conversation! Very nice.

LOL. Sounds like a conversation at my house. That's why I talk to my dogs and the cat. They listen and there is no miscommunication. Original concept that brings a smile. Marilyn

This is a fun and creative poem written in the form of an one-sided conversation between an elderly couple who struggle to understand one another. It has great rhythm and I can imagine the couple. Thank you for sharing. I wish you success in the contest.

Lol this was amusing and so very accurate. I tend to have this problem in my own relationships it would be confusing to them but makes perfect sense to me because I'm seeing both sides, but my mate is emotionally dormant.

    Thanks for the insightful review, Raniqua. That's the interpretation I had hoped for (but not the dismissive four stars, especially after your very complimentary review). I always feel rewarded when someone understands and appreciates what I've written.

Hello, mystery poet,

I love the dialogue, It reads like a script to be performed on stage.

It feels more like prose than poetry, though.

Best wishes for the contest. Fingers crossed ... :) :)
