Very astute observation, Lynda.  I bet you're right.  I, too, just took it 
for what it said, not thinking he may have transposed some letters.

Jackie, it took me a second--or third--reading to realize it was a sestina 
because of the way it came through.

Myrna, you write in such a beautiful way.  Gotta put this poem in a document 
so I can put my fingers on it.

Barbara

C.S. Lewis Narnia series, I would assume.
Aslan is a savior/
Christ figure - very beautiful series of books.
Have read them several times - my daughter has a lovely cat named Aslan,
after C.S.Lewis' Aslan.
