So funny and good. Thank you Terry.

Terry, this is absolutely awesome - although I had to take a second and third look at the title of this post, assuming you'd had a fight with your keyboard in an effort to type 'apostrophe'.

As is my typical practice during my reading of your posts I had some Googling to do - there are so many ways out there to structure a poem, aren't there? Epistrophe - a word I've come across for the very first time in your post - is a nicely neat and tidy pattern - it's nice to follow the same breadcrumb all the way to the end of the trail. Learned a lot - as usual. Thank you so much!

Nicely done, and taught me a new term.

Excellent and very clever, Terry. It rolls and rhymes very nicely, Terry.

This is so darned clever, Terry. You are quite the poet. Are these called couplets, or what? I know little about rhyme and meter...

I love this one! You did a great job of summarizing the whole episode with simplicity. Well done.

I read your version

Without aversion

Enjoyed it instead

All through my head

What a great writer!

I said to myself

My day much brighter

Because of thyself (aka Terry)
