ICK!” you would have to call the poems phonetic and not homonymic. So, the original poster was actually correct. Ok you can now continue the fun now; grammar lesson over. P.S. this is my favorite one. On 2005-08-11 16:51, tikinoobie wrote: In her sweet and quiet way, WYSTERIA looks forward to every day.
