Ode to Quincunx

Planets are - very far
And we see them shine

They move on, then they're gone
Rarely in a line

Read your stars. Look for Mars
Five will bring quincunxes

Take a chance and find a stance
to never be sync schnookses

Phew, I was worried how you were going to rhyme 'Quincunxes'

Er, shouldn't 'chance' rhyme with 'wish'? Just a thought.

You're right, of course. Keithyd. I've been distracted with connection problems all day which must have affected my rhyming gene. That, or I suffered a hoof slip! Thanks for your concern. All's well that ends well, as you can see.

How about:

A group of fifteen monks,
Arranged as three quincunx.

You could probably throw in some skunks as well.

You are a bear of enormous brain, Andy B. If only I had thought of that........... so simple yet profound! It must be all that Welsh rain that does it. That, or maybe it's because you only stir occasionally so have more brain juice to draw upon?
