What a lovely way to begin this round.

Thank you very much!

I love your summary, and I love the fact that Holmes has seen fit to leave a comment in red ink ^__^

Perhaps he should have added a gold star as well - it is indeed a lovely poem.

Thank you! The ink is more symbolic than realistic. I tried writing a 60 word poem myself and gave up after 3 tries. I'm actually more pleased with this as a first offering than I think I would've been with a poem. Something amusing.

Nicely done...well done Watson, indeed:-)

He didn't realise that Holmes was such a snoop (but it should be so much of a surprise)! Hee, hee!

[debriswoman]

Holmes' response was hardly subtle:-p

Perhaps he thought the overt, effusive route would feed the muse.

Tenderly evocative. Nice to see they understand each other from the outset!

Thank you very much!

Well done, okapi.

Actually, I think Watson writng a little poetry is very ic.

Thank you! As someone who is home-bound a lot (for reasons other than Watson's) I find that poetry is a solace. A way to challenge your brain and record your observations and make sense of the world when you don't have much human interaction. So, I can see him dabbling a bit in poetry, too.
