The Faded Bloomers Rhapsody

Authors

Howard W. Bergerson

Abstract

The poem that follows, by rare but happy accident, is a perfect palindrome, reading the same backward as it does forward. It is distinguished for using 16 words of 7 or more letters, including one of 13 letters and one of 16. In all, it is 450 letters long - an astonishing achievement.
