Therese–You’ve got it! I wish I had a prize for you. If you haven’t tried an anagram, I recommend doing so. They’re great fun, rather addictive, and really force you to think about word choice and line endings. Also, they of necessity result in some cool sounds.

Diane — is your ”Pleasure” in the form of an anagram poem? That is, all the end words in the poem’s lines are derived only from letters in the title word. I found the term ”anagram poem” on failbetter.com. Congratulations on your recent publications!
