I thoroughly enjoyed this poem. At first I didn't fully understand it, and found it to be rather juvenile. However, after I was told that the word anther is actually a part of a flower, and not just a way of making the word answer rhyme with panther, I was able to pick up on the sexual undertones of the piece. A poem that had seemed like it was taken from a children's book suddenly felt mature. Now when I read it I can't help but giggle.
