My First Entry

Yeah, yeah, I know. I was the one who belly-ached about the pressure, about one week being not enough time to post a poem, but the poem I wrote was an exception. For one thing, I was itching to write about the green dress and the poem had been percolating in my mind for a long time, especially while I was reading some of the books on the case. So hook or crook, I was going to write about the green dress, and Ann, bless her heart, gave me the perfect entry. Also, I knew I had to hurry because school papers loomed over the near horizon like a naughty child waiting to steal candy from the store. The next poem, I anticipate, will be exponentially harder to write!
