Frost is a poetical tyrant, he was once quoted saying that writing free verse poetry is like playing tennis wihtout a net. The man was some sort of self made elitist who was later boughten by hallmark for their evil schemes of dominating the greeting card industry by making new holidays to push sales. Secretaries Day? Where the hell did that come from? A holiday that rewards workers for doing their jobs? Please! Thats like having a sanitation management engineers day. The card could read like this, "thanks for picking up my trash, I hope the sex creams never gave you a rash." There Frost, that was a couplet. What did you think? I like it very much I may as well copywrite it and send it to Hallmark along with an invoice.
And as for my yearbook, I'll have to get back with you on that.

I didn't rise to the bait, yet you ranted anyway. Dude, I'm so impressed. Go David!

Have you not yet had your morning caffeine (or maybe too much?), or should I remember that Frost is someone that will guarantee ticking you off in the future?

S'nice poem. I always liked Robert Frost, though I'm gonna go all stereotypical on you and say "The Road Not Taken" is my favorite. Or "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening." Such a lovely flow those poems have. ^_^
