Hi Fran Marie, thanks for dropping in :)
I'm having way too much fun with this little poesy!
Truth is, it's shallow as shallow can be, nothing deep here. If anyone's ready for the Farm I think maybe it's me. :D haha

[Fran Marie]

you're so very welcome

This is a puzzler, a bit like those IQ tests that you come across and wish you didn't. All I'm going to say here is it's nice to be light hearted and frivolous once in a while. We live in intense times.

This began with an innocent trip to Rhymezone to pair words with "Brevity," then got out of hand! :)
I'm still trying to figure it out myself !

Geez! For a minute I got a surge of panic like I was taking a test! This reminds me of the kind of stuff they put on college entrance exams. I don't know how I ever got in. If I had any brainwaves left, I would think this thru carefully, but alas! (((HUGS)))

As I just shared with Chris, this one bamboozles me too! If you ever do figure it out, barleygirl, let me know :)

As the Bard might have put it, this don't make no goddamn sense.
