As a regular commenter on that column, I thoroughly enjoyed the poem, and took the liberty of setting it to the tune of "O Tannenbaum" (aka, "Maryland, My Maryland"). I have uploaded a Karoake-format demo to YouTube at:<br />https://youtu.be/opNNNJcPCdY<br /><br />Please let me know if this violates your very generous "no permissions needed" policy, and I will take it down promptly. In the meantime, I would like to share the clip with other fellow commenters on the Wordplay column.<br /><br />I will watch for your reply here, and/or in the YouTube clip's comments.<br /><br />Many thanks,<br />Alan Riley JonesAlan Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06776818491648491054noreply@blogger.com
