I felt the locks/socks rhyme was a bit forced, but the rest of it is fun, quirky, and whimsical. Well done!
I love I love! Oh, Mr Quick you set my gaslight burning. I love the Dr Seuss feel and the poetry within prose. And the scene is fantastic, some mix of the Great Gatsby party and the Hobbit. This has made my day!
This is playful and it gives me a very fuzzy, happy feeling. I love it!
