You certainly wove the required words seamlessly into your poem, and I hope it was well received in the contest. I admired your challenging yourself to create the piece in rhymed couplets. Thanks for adding your sense of humor as well--I'm still chortling! -Joan

When in doubt, a bit of scatalogical humour usually works. I don't think we ever quite grow out of it. That, together with your slightly tortured rhyme pairs, makes this an entertaining piece.

Ha ha ha ...I think this is awesome...you used lilac fir and dipper and it all made sense. I've used an outhouse. My grandparents had one...they had sandpaper in there to sand the seat so you didn't get splinters.LOL...I told them I put off peeing or pooping until the last possible moment ..there was no time for sanding ...I was bouncing from foot to foot. And we called it the long drop in New Zealand...the deeper the hole dug the longer it took to sound the better...
God bless and hugs...thanks for the memories ...ha ha ha

Well you certainly combined all the requisite words into a humorous tongue in cheek poem --most enjoyable to read ---your meter of course was crazy, but you kept faithful to your story, particularly in the short time allowed --very well done--good luck in the contest!

All the Best!

HELLO POET: If I didn't, "KNOW," that you wrote this...I would imagine that I wrote it. In other words what I mean is that I can relate to this because: "I have been here, and I have done this before. It was a long time ago...but nonetheless...I have actually experienced living like this. At the time I was just a kid...and this was all that I knew. So I thought that this was my life...and it was what I was supposed to do. I have come a long way...since way back then...yet and still...this is where I have been. Thank you for sharing, poet. God bless you and yours. Cordially: rhonnie69.

T o be sure it's a bucket and dipper, (eliminate space in to)

An excellent and creative poem based on a difficult set of words. You must be a real poet, my friend. Best wishes in the contest~Debbie
