This is another summer school lens. The challenge was to make a lens about something using only 5 modules. Pretty shortly afterwards this was relaxed to possibly not include the intro and Guestbook, but I went with the more restrictive version.

It proved tricky as it wasn't possible to add everything I wanted. For example, the musical versions are absent and I focused entirely on the poem. Usually I avoid extensive CSS on Lenses because they can be very unpredictable (Squidoo's code filter plus browser differences occassionally equals a right mess!) but with this one it was the only way to assemble it.

If you are on Squidoo why not try the challenge yourself? Even if you aren't in the summer school, it's well worth it just for the practice.
