Hand Me Down to die

[ChristopherSea]

Thank you very much Leanne! I am over-joyed that I made teacher proud, ha ha... Yes, the lines are alternate 5/6 syls with near rhymes and it almost killed me. I can get through brusquely maybe, but those ssSssSsss bumps rubbed me as well. I will work on all three lines again. I am glad you caught the metaphor and impact. Going after the hat, scarf and threads now...


You know what Leanne, I think it's the two syllable count of the first word in each one of those lines that is throwing us off. They all have 1st syl stresses too. what do you think?

I am getting the iron out after dinner.
