Hi Sudha, thank you for stopping by and your lovely feedback. I did intend to start writing Part 4 today, but have not got there yet.

Well done and thanks for sharing this Halloween inspired poem.

Hi Martin. A fun poem indeed. I loved your title/first line of your poem. It rolls off the tongue and would make me smile every time I read it. You have encapsulated their boring, humdrum existence really well.

Hi Christy, well done. A lovely poem. Great word choice, short and succinct.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi SJ, Oh I love it. I can picture you dancing around the kitchen:) Celebrate the coming of age, the feeling comfortable in our own skins. It takes a while to get there but when we do we are a force to be reckoned with. I love – Hot Damn!
