Not A Butterfly

Rating: 5.0


You tested arnt
and ant and ornt.
You settled on ont.

You tried The Hornt
and The Hant and the Harnt.
You settled on The Hont.

You were not a bee or a butterfly.
You were meeting you mother's sister
at her favorite restaurant.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
'Haunt' is said by an American 'Hont'.
'Aunt' looks like 'Haunt'.
So why doesn't an American say 'Ont'
and open up rhyming his mother's sister
with 'her favorite restaurant'?
