Adventures in the Life of an Interrogative Pronoun

Who went looking for meaning

found Webster defined ‘who’

as an interrogative pronoun

Taking an interrogative approach

Who went looking for a synonym

wrote ‘w-h-o’ in the query box

and kept getting ‘No results found.’

Who tried another thesaurus site

the query box kept adding ‘r-e’

after three attempts to type ‘w-h-o’

Who decided an added ‘r-e’ was more exciting.

(I am a word spinner and I often use online dictionaries and thesauruses; and this poem came out of tonight’s queries)
