"...phrasal-hyphenated adjectives"
thought Miss Easy "easy-to-miss"
will need a line as a little dash
that prose might not go amiss.
I miss Miss Easy easily
adding verbs verbally rhymed,
as easy-to-miss punctuates
with confusion's pump well-primed.
The hyphen ate my home-work...
Best-wished wishes....
And the same to you. :)
