     The Crime Was Solved
The crime was solved
An ac•com•plice was involved
The ver•dict evolved
Thus –
With the offenders’ fate resolved,
The prison gates revolved
As the men’s good names dissolved.

                                         Story 235

                Sean
Sean cashed in all he had to pawn
To move to the woods where he was drawn
To fish for trout up•stream to spawn
To use an ax to build his brawn
To sleep upon grassy lawn
And wake at dawn with robust yawn,
Seeing bucks, does, and little fawn
