Question: Could you look into this for me!?
*****
I fell through the hole in floor
that the carpenter made
while fixing my refrigerator,

The things I encountered there
could have made a fine Lewis Carroll tea party, indeed

My home’s infrastructure was in terrible disrepair,
there were no traces of elf, fairy or dragon!.

I immediately called my neighbor,
she reported no such lackings,
That was when I became nervous…

Never trust carpenters!.!.!.my dad was one and I still find other people's dragons when I least expect them and sometimes they're hard to return to their rightful owners!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

cool idea!. i might take out the "lewis" in "lewis carroll"; you have enough recall there people will be able to figure it out!.!.!.seems kinda overkill and too many syllables to do it all!. i would even throw in a "yet" in the begining of "there were no traces of elf!.!.!.!."!. maybe even explain how even though there were non of those mythical creatures to be found there, yet there was still disrepair!. and it seems unfinished!.!.!.!.finish!!!! but i love the start!. i reminds me of shel silverstein!. with his stories you never know where its going to go!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I will investigate for you, but perhaps you searched at the wrong time!. You must look for elves and fairies in the morning, and dragons at night!. I suspect you were there in the afternoon!. The creatures have a way of escaping detection until their appropriate time to be seen!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's interesting!. It's very confusing, and doesn't follow suit!.!.!.not that that is a bad thing at all!

It's confusing, and needs quite alot of work to make it into a poem, not just ramblings, but overall, it's ok!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I just have one question: WHY would a carpenter be fixing a refrigerator!?!?!?
As for the rest, I agree with Elaine, your timing was off!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I love this lovely, whimsical poem, and might I add that when I can't find the elves, they are usually standing right behind me, suppressing giggles!. Thank you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Your house has had an break in of oysters!. They arrived for lunch!.
