Have not read poem yet. Photo makes me sick. Sick that I misplaced my shears! ! Are you sure they are webbed? I say they are 'joined'. Look at frogs' feet and decide for yourself. Ok, i SHALL read poem NOW. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks for Poet's Notes. Did professor ever discover your duplicity-of-sorts? I'll 'forgive' sure/more. The rest of the rhyming makes up for THAT. Enchanting (?) Poem. Bri :) TO MyPoemList. Bri :)

I'd say that you are right about the difference between webbed and joined. As for sure/more, where I grew up, those two words are a perfect rhyme! (But thanks for your forgiveness, anyway.) Hey, it wasn't MY duplicity. It was my brother and my brother-in-law. (I think they did tell him later that it was the same woman they were talking about.)

I like the way the Prof was neatly conned! Really good poem and the photo was a brilliant extra.

What a funny picture. She came with instructions on how to correct what nature fouled up. I liked your poem, but the picture steals the show.

Thanks, Lora. I was pleased to be able to find this picture online to go with the poem. I thought it made a nice finishing touch. (And what a clever tattoo that woman got!)

Interesting story Kim. I like the picture with the dotted line and the scissors!

Thanks, Spock. As I said in the poet's notes, this is a true story.
