Yes, Mariaki - but It's still legal so I think you may get away with it!

Ah, I like the final couplet that throws you back into the poem to re-examine what you thought you'd worked out. A real onionverse for Whysper to check out. Loved it. Plath & Ibsen knocking at my door.

Tony -

Antonio-onion-yo-yo - Just about to have tea but saw you in comments

after I just posted a new blog and wanted to read your sonnet before you went to sleep.  You had already warned me you were going to do this!  Ha, ha, ha!  So I knew what you were talking about.  A masterful double-entendre, indeed!  Yes, we did do the same thing today!  This was really good, Tony.  So very well done.  Made me smile and I needed one this evening.  Thank you so much!  Off for tea now!  No peas, though..........
