I don’t mean to be controversial, but this *isn’t* a waterford! There are too few syllables in the 1st line, and too many in the 3rd - it must be 8,4,4,8 - that’s the challenge. This would be disqualified from the competition, so always double check.

And it’s open!
Write a waterford, submit it at waterfordrhyme.com & maybe win €100. Simples.
I can leave you all in peace now 😏
