Hi Roxanna, that makes two of us. Punctuation is my worst enemy. I learn and learn, and get better but I still get it utterly wrong. I want to, but I don't ever think I will get it write. I owe especially one writer for keeping my punctuation right. I wouldn't know what to do without her. All best. Ulla:)))

I hate punctuation. I can't learn it! I put it thru my grammar program, but they want $140 a year for the full package. No way! I have you guys to do it for free. =} Thanks you dear. Rox
Comment from Janetsue
lol Your sense of humor shows strongly in this work which made me laugh. I, however, am one of those who really appreciates punctuation because it makes it so much easier to understand what a is trying to be and to see the point awriter is making.
If you're a purple llama, you're a very talented one and can express yourself very well!

I'm very purple I'm afraid and my brain can't seem to learn. =} But I'm very glad you enjoyed the poem. I agree without punctuation you could be eating your grandma. 'Let's eat grandma' or Let's eat, grandma =} Thank you for the great review. Rox
Comment from Patty Palmer
Very catchy rhyme and rhythm! It just bounces along when read allowed.
It is very true though punctuation, it's totally confusing. I took a college creative writing class. I told that professor "I've taken English Grammar for 12 years I attended school and I never learned where to put a comma and you're going to teach me that in a handful of weeks?? " I had my doubts! And I was right!! 25 years later I still don't know where to put that dang little comma@

=} I am the worst. All my error are spelling and grammar. I'm forever forgetting to put the 'ed' on words. I do it in emails to. Total brain block! Thanks so much for the great review. Rox

Hi Rox. Love this amusing poem. Yes the punctuation police can turn us all into sad purple llamas. We just do the best we can with what we've got and write, write, write. Very enjoyable. Marilyn

Comment from Mistydawn
This is a cute poem, a fun little read. I think we all feel that way about punctuation for me it's the darn commas. Think I'm the queen of sentence splicing. Thank you for sharing this bit of humor with us.

Wonderful - and I do believe I'm kin to your purple friend. I am horrible at grammar - tried to ignore it all through school. Now i do it by the skin of my teeth and don't always hit the mark.
Love your poem

I could never learn it in school and I have tired to read up on things and it won't stay with me. So I am cursed. =} Thanks so much. Rox
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about the punctuation curse, I thought, I was the only one who always have the punctuation and grammar rules confusion.

Your work looks just fine to me, of course I have trouble with punctuation as well. Phyllis has been an angle when it comes to tutoring me. She has to yell at me sometimes(Large print)in order o get a point across. LOL Well done, Rox. Nancy:)

Comment from Sally Law
I love purple and struggle with punctuation. I see eye to eye with a purple Llama in every way. First, the semicolon is a mystery to me. Second, I am tall. Finally, I am a storyteller, not an English professor. Oh yes, I am a purple one for sure. However, we all need each other and that is what FanStory is all about. Your poem is funny, creative, and added the kind of humor that enabled me to lighten up. Thanks--I needed that!
Sending you my best today as always,
Sal xo

Thanks. I do always need lots of help. My tiny brain just can't remember any of it. =}
Remember I told you someone was upset about my one poem about being a martyr, the didn't like what I wrote in my notes. Felt I thought Christian were better than everyone else. Well she has blocked me from seeing any of her stuff.
I've never had anyone do that before. I love her writing, but guess I will have to do without it. I didn't even know you could block a person. She was of a different religion so took great offense. I tied to apologize and explain I didn't mean that at all. She said it was over and life goes on, but I guess she doesn't want a person who thinks she is superior reading her posts. =} If she only knew. Oh well. Rox
Comment from robyn corum
Rox,
Well, since I do not want my own head stomped in, I shall hereafter tread VERY carefully. hehe Sounds like you've still been getting some grief from people. I think you should hire a purple llama, personally. I'll help pay the cost. Grrrr...
Thanks!
