See, just one more reason methinks to buy a desert island, a helicopter, a
lifetime's supply of Lea & Perrins Worcestire sauce, immac waxing strips, and all the DVD sets of 'Shameless'. I'm prepared.

Where's Noah when we need him?
Pretty good, my man. From Eden through the flood and beyond, with a little tasty pizza thrown in for good measure. What's not to like?

Many thanks for your kind thoughts Durbs -
I don't know why I included the pizza - I suppose it updates the Garden of Eden a bit, like updating Shakespeare!

We added our prayers (for what its worth) but U coped w/ Battle of Britain,
so floods are more natural of a threat, I suppose? Glad the soneteering goes on....liked your dialect in this one. Why didn't Eve buy an Italian recipe book and make pizza instead, yes WHY! shalomfromdurbin

Antonio-onion-yo-yo - Well. I happen to like the Big Apple. Apple pie.
Apple dumplings. Apple fritters. Applecakes. Apple. That word is beginning to look very strange. You don't like apples? Seriously? Actually, Tony, that sonnet was very well done and I liked the layered imagery. Well done!
