    Ah! Communication between the sexes.. always a minefield. Thanks for trying out the first mini-challenge on Real Toads.

    Egads! *clutches heart* A form poem--albeit an unknown and obscure one only used by Rumanian fortune tellers on Friday the 13th. I love it, and of course, now I have to try it myself. This is rather a dooorbell.

    Love this ~ and it's not a haiku! Oddquain ~ what an odd name! I've learned something new today.

    I'm not sure if I should be impressed or insulted ;-)

    I adore the condescending tone. I was gonna tease you about the Haikus and now a fucking form, but the gallery has teased you enough. :)

    This has me smiling widely! Love it! Quirky form and all it still speaks very truly of an eternal problem - how do you get a man to actually speak? *smile*

    You are in great form today, Shay! (Not that I have ever seen or heard of that form, so now here I go to find out more....but you'll always be my first mirror oddquain.)
