I'm making a calendar for Robert of Mallory, and am amusing myself. One month's illustration is this photo and this filked poem:

TWO roads diverged where I was at,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I sat
And looked around in my bunny hat
To where Mom was biting back an oath;

One was rutted, narrow, and unkempt,
Clearly difficult terrain,
The other, busier, we could attempt;
Dangerous for us to some extent
By no means a pleasant lane.

And Mom was wroth to push me either way
Into traffic or along the rougher track;
Oh, we kept the first for another day!
And took the stroller on the rougher way,
Thinking we'd take the other back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads in our neighborhood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
To find it ended at someone's fence.

That's marvelous! (And "wroth." Double points for "wroth.")

He can hold this against you, you know? Heh. Very nice.

That is one inspired filk. Definitely looking forward to more! I hope you'll share them all.
