Your poem on rocks brings the blocks of sand into the eyes of man. :) I must say you have some stones that are fossilized with your MAGMA saying. :) It is crystal clear that I know the chalk in this fracking tectonic plates of a poem. With The Rock of Ages I sign off. Thank you for the smile.

Haha... I do enjoy your reviews. Especially when they are accompanied by such shiny bits of glowing moon rock.
Comment from Gypsymooncat
At first I thought WTF? sorry for expletive... Anyhoo, as I read I realised you hadn't lost your pebbles, but rather I live under a rock because you are extremely clever and I found myself smiling broadly when it became apparent that I am very slow like a rolling stone and, well, this is a marvy poem and if it isn't a winner I'll crawl back under that there rock!!

Comment from CrystieCookie999
This is so funny. I always get impressed when I am entertained and have to look up one or two or three words at the same time. These are great. I had to look up tufa and wacke, by the way. I like the idea that Sherlock Holmes was at heart a geologist, too, because it certainly would have helped him solve all kinds of crimes with soil and pebble clues. My favorite line is: "If you lava good chortle, maybe he'll be immortal" and the rest was great, too!

Sounds like you've had a mini-education as well as a laugh. Thanks so much for your review and comments.
Comment from David R. Davis
Okay, so that was brilliant. I've never before given a six stars, but if any writing deserves it, yours does. Obviously your play on words was all but perfect. I'd say that even if you sang a tune by the Rolling Stones (fossils that they are) it would be well received. I'm sending you a MAFA hat. You've done your work to Make America Funny Again. Well done and thanks for the mammories. Go well.

I feel highly honoured to have written something 6-star worthy in your eyes. Thank you very much. I shall wear my new MAFA hut in as undignified a manner as possible.

How else could one wear such a hat. Go well my friend.
Comment from Sallyo
My, my, that's a lotta rock. I'm full of admiration for anyone who can create something like this, full of rocks, naughtiness and puns... not to speak malignment of T-Rex!

Thanks for your review. That T Rex sure had evil intentions. I'm glad the asteroid got him.
Comment from Pantygynt
Here we have a great and glorious gallimaufrey of geological gobbledygook that, when you look sideways at it, and having removed the spectacles you borrowed from Mrs Malaprop, makes a reasonable degree of sense and is a great laugh for a Saturday morning.

That is a nicely appreciative review. Thank you very much. Good to start your weekend with a geological guffaw.

Absolutely!
Comment from tfawcus
Although I've no sixes left, I can boulderly predict this will be a winner - even if I forget to vote for it, which is more than likely. What else can one say, but your poem rocks?

Stone the crows! Nice review, thanks Tony. (I hope you might rock up to the booth and run a flinty gaze over the entries).

I got a real kick out of the way you immersed yourself in this contest spirit...you've covered about everything but the kitchen sink and done it with a bit of humor and a whole lot of wit! Good luck!--Karenina

Thanks for your good wishes, Dolly. The 29-word story beginning and ending with the same word is rather an odd one too.
Comment from Iza Deleanu
Your poem made me laugh a lot:"It's sedimentary, dear Watson," said Sherlock Holmes.
"Don't take it for granite you live on a safe planet.
Scientists might find you fossilised -
ossified when you're immobilised." Good luck with the contest.
