sad to warn

cheated when least expecting

so loved the Rossetto glassworks

in Venice we visited in December

but only five of the six

glasses i ordered came in the box

they refuse to admit error

say six were confirmed

though they do not state

how they know

adamant

end of story

so now all i can do is warn others

do see their marvelous factory

and store, but whatever you buy

take with you
