Art is subject subjectively
To every unschooled one
Of us to claim an untaught
Even a proudly ignorant

Magic number, not
Nine or eleven or
An even ten an odd one
Not one per se, but
A shorter or a
Longer number like thirteen
Why five, not fourteen?
Why? Am I missing something?
Solve
Denouement, that's 3
Syllables (3 again) Ah
Panagram solved
Denouement, a word
I like. I didn't solve it
Just enjoyed the word.
Hardy little coleus
The coleus was
Strong killed by kindness, then
Neglect, it gave up
Cloudy
Cloudless? Never ever is
It a cloudless sky. No sun?
Clouds will appear anyway
The haiku
It's not really
Lyrical, now is it, but there

Dolly Parton in my life
If anyone ever does
