Roundel as Spousal Response
“Not everything needs to become a poem.”
What can I say except “How true”?
“Indeed”? “Correct”? “Spot-on”? “Touché”?
When choosing to agree with you,

Word games with life events anew
At almost any time of day.
Now, pardon me, if you are through,
So I may turn our repartee
Into a poem for review.
What can I say?
