Not Only/ But Also

National Poetry Month, Day 30

I made it.   The quality of these is uneven, but here they are, available for revision.

 

Not Only/But Also

 

The nuns taught us that pair.

Not only that one, but also

Both/and

Neither /Nor

Either/Or.

Correlative conjunctions

Not only related to each other,

But also offering alternatives.

The testimonial dinner offered

Not only the Boeuf Bourguignon

But also the Chicken Divan

Either you drink Cabernet

Melding that satin mouth filling taste

Or you go with Chardonnay

And get citrus and cool silk.

So many choices

I feel ashamed.
