Hi Daniel,
Nicely done! Also, thanks for the heads-up on the X10 challenge. I never would have seen it if it hadn't been for your Cinquain.
I'll see if I can come up with an answer to the challenge in a few days or less.
Larry
p.s. It was nice and very surprising to see that Lori posted the challenge. Hurrahs are in order.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.
