And No one Died

[Muttado1sb]

And no one died
That's a relief
the sergeant sighed
I'll tell the chief
It was just fun
Kids with squirt guns
All splash, no clash

Hahahahahahaha nice one, Muttado.

[Muttado1sb]

Thanks, grant. The first line came out of a comment I wrote to MHenry's reverse nonet, and then I remembered the recent news story from Toronto where the police were called out to what was a bunch of girls playing assassins in squirt gun fight. This four syllable form has just taken over my creative process.

[grant hayes]

I think it was made for you ☺

[RhymeLovingWriter]

I'm thinking I agree!

[Muttado1sb]

Thank you. But eventually it will move on. It just doesn't appear that it will be any time soon.

Wow - love this!

[Muttado1sb]

Well, thank you, Sumyanna.

Hi, Muttado1sb, This one is very clever and flows smoothly. It also has the rhythm of police talk, which is very cool!
You are a veritable fount of Ha'Sonnets!
Not that you need to, but feel free to experiment with free verse and take other liberties with the form to give yourself a larger palette.
I sent you an invite just a little bit ago.
