The opening poem contains all the words (or variations of them) from today's Jumble.
Comments are welcomed! And couching them in Poetry is definitely NOT required.
Do not explicitly reveal any of the actual answer words until after closing time, but embedding them surreptitiously in comment sentences is encouraged.

Katherine Ross was so angry at the trick Sally played, we needed to lock her away to prevent her doing harm.
That's why we titled this verse (Spooneristically...)
"Latch You, Kate R."
Kate Ross felt wrath!
She taught a Styles of Math class
using an abacus to tally.
Sally Hayes epoxy'd beads en masse
so the sums concurred with Sally
"Hazy" 's fuzzy math.

"Happy Couple"
Sam lived with Sally in an alley
but after their savings they did tally
they moved to a home in the valley.
They rarely fought
because Sam had Sally taught
when conflicted to demur
and figure out how to concur.
Sally was occasionally foxy
and sometimes tough, like epoxy.
But she was lucky that her dater
married her just a bit later.
She knew Sam was a really great catch,
and for her, a perfect match.
Thank you, Misty, OMK and Sandy for the birthday wishes. I was in travel mode and finally got up to Dunnellon and fell asleep solving CC Xword.
I just did the six Sunday J's in my head and actually got the four Monday J's from the Ocala paper.
That was a nice paean from Owen to Misty perfectly describing her positive and family friendly poems.
I like to cook salmon then dice it into Mac 'n cheese with a zero alcohol beer
Salmon yesterday, Trout today or do the sharp-eyed detect a bass

Ol' Man Keith, intriguing verses about two women dealing with math. Only I can't quite figure out if they're at odds and in conflict or what? However, as usual, brilliant incorporation of all Jumble words and solution into you clever poems--many thanks for that!
Wilbur, many thanks for your kind response to Owen's generous poem. A lovely gift, wasn't it?
And how nice to hear that you enjoy salmon. Me too--just made some for dinner on Saturday.
LOL, Misty ~ Sally "Hazy" Hayes was a pupil in Ms. Ross' math class. That's the source of the anger mentioned in the preamble to the Spoonerism title of my two-stanza ditty.
You know, nothing riles a school-marm so much...
--as a student who gets the drop on her!

Thanks, OMK, with your explanation, I think I've got it.
I just reread OMK 's poem. What a rhyme scheme. eecummings would be so proud.
I'd like to try something with doxy and epoxy, and something to tally- perhaps the doxy's tricks.
But it's midnight EDT so goodnight.
