is this your mistake? implying there are 2 L's in beautiful Flavorful only has 2 Ls, though you might think 3. ] It's the same for beautiful, as some flowers can be. a very thoughtful poem for a young poet. great write you may like my poem titled patience is a test in pronunciation
Wow..... that's filled my heart with admiration, how gentle and caring u r.... A very simple but very loving, indeed it happens especially with ES and those cant follow or doesn't know about the typing rules(like myself) Indeed spelling isn't an easy task... but u r a great composer, no doubt of it
Interesting poem with a lively tone and flowing rhymes, I remember 'My Fair Lady' and G.B. Shaw' spelling 'ghoti' for 'fish'. I enjoyed reading it :)
