THE INVASION OF “U”s AND “UR”s…
The discarded letter Y, upset
Self-righteously began to fret–
Mulling over various means and modes
To expose the apostate at cross-roads–
A newfangled “AVATAR” with a penchant
For vowels leaving the Pedagogue trenchant !
Orthography randomly altered sans any concomitant
Afflicting, in usage, each and every piqued consonant–
Petitioned jointly Goddess Saraswati and the Muse
To henceforth, not appease, inspire or even enthuse
Instead leave the Rebel in confusion– solely self-wrought
As to whether to say–appropriately–“Y'” or rather “Y not” ?

The thematic concerns of this fine literary piece are brilliantly spotlighted with the aid of the tongue- in- cheek figure of speech.
Thank you sir. As always there is nothing more fulfilling than being a recipient of such gratifying comments !
