Thank you Emily - it is nice to get a retrospective comment before a poem sinks out of sight! This is only an ironic view of mine, and not meant to replace any genuine distress it may cause. I was playing with the idea, and I'm pleased that it fits you ; I hope it will be well received by your mother. Keep up the great poems by the way.
