ReplyDeleteFun play with color, font, and spacing. Nice, surprise ending.
ReplyDeleteNice Work Helen!

This is a return visit. Couldn’t leave a comment before 😢 The site didn’t let me. Helen, Aww, well I think there’s no doubt of how different each line is here. I love it. I don’t have those fonts. Is it really cold for you already? Golly. Too soon. No wonder you’re looking for The Bee Gees. Love this Helen. Thanks. Xo, Selma.
ReplyDeleteSo much fun - and such fabulous colours too! I think Barry Gibb would have sung this one out loud, whilst swinging his hips!
ReplyDeleteLove the whimsy of this! A hop, skip, jump of a poem 🙂
ReplyDeleteIt has a wonderful rhythm to it. Even with all the really different lines it has a central thought and I love that fun.
