    As a casual clown and poet, this inflates my imagination! 😉

    DOH! You really got me with those last 2 lines. I actually looked up “ption”…and was getting ready to ask you what BOTH words meant…when…ahhh! Perception. 🙂

      Thank you! Haha! That’s too funny, Karen 🙂 I was trying to shape the poem into a balloon & the hyphen would have stuck out too much (making it appear as though it was stuck by a needle!). I hope you have a lovely Thanksgiving, my friend 🙂
      Cheers,
      Tyler
