FINALE

Another journey’s now complete—

From A to Z we went.

Some stops—some rewinds—all, of course,

A writing accident.

I learned a lot along the way—

I hope that you did, too.

So many eponyms out there—

A really chunky stew.

But now we all have had enough—

And so before you scream—

Or try, perhaps, some violence—

I’ll find another theme.

So ... “Watch This Space”—as ads once said.

Then step aboard the ship,

For it is time, I recognize,

To launch another trip.
