Very nice graphic and poem, bentfeather.

(But I didn't see where you used the line "the dog ate mother's toes" anywhere.)

The words *Dog* and *dragonfly* both begin with the letter *D*. It's a literary allusion, very subtle and tasteful.

The intellectual reader immediately recalls the words of Freemont A. Harkins with such an obvious prompt. Of course, I sometimes have the same reaction upon hearing Chuck Berry sing My Ding-aling.

Right, bentfeather?

Ping to the Dave Barry Thread.

The funny thing about this poetry contest is that one of my entries actually won the first round and qualified for inclusion in some book of poetry they are publishing. I was thoroughly amused by their letter, which I referenced in one of the comments on the thread.
