This one was a bit more warm fuzzy and not as grabbing as the first ones. I still liked it. |

I am glad you liked this poem despite the change in format. I did have some questions as to if the style would be too cute or not. |

Actually, apparently they do in some Northern dialects. I stand corrected. But they don't in Southern English. Oops.
(I maintain the northerners speak weirdly, but don't let any of them hear me say that.) |

LOL well I certainly won't tell. Rhyming is always a tricking thing to deal with. Sometimes I forget all about dialects in interpertation. |

Very cute! You certainly captured her embarrassment. I remember a few moments like that when I was dealing with Boys. Eep - this certainly brought it all back.
One thing - class and lass don't rhyme in UK English - aren't accents a pain? |

Doing stupid things around boys certainly is embarrassing. The stupider they are, the harder it is to laugh them off. (Actions..not boys *wink*) I'm glad it amused you. |

What a darling impression of Harry through Ginny's eyes. I always knew Harry could play the Knight Galant and he's done a wonderful job of it here. |

I'm glad you liked it. Not to ruin your impression of the poem, but actually I was thinking in terms of L/J not H/G though I suppose this particular poem could go either way. Maybe I'll have to do some clarifying in the next one and include a few names instead of pronouns... |
