  3. Proper Joe,

    A scalding denunciation.

    I hope you don't know this person.

    Dreary them indeed.

  10. I felt sad for "dreary you" after reading the haiku, then laughed out loud with the addition.

  11. the title says it all, I like like "dreary you", I suppose if one's attitude isn't positive, what future will they have?

    thanks for your visit to my blog hope you are enjoying your day

  12. Hi Andy,

    Well, I hope when we shake hands it's a firm one, not timid.
    You rose to this poetry challenge well! I like this line a lot: "handshake no embrace"
