It starts something like, "30 days hath September, April, June and November. All the rest have 31..." but that's as far as I can remember.

First, a short-short critique of the poem: it's perfectly prosaic and what ambiguities are in it must be imported by the reader. Second, it's an excellent statement of a reader's assessment of the effect of ambiguity found in a poem. For you, ambiguity is effective--hence warranted use--when it functions like a magician's scarf, a temporary screen over the mystery revealed with a flourish. --------------- I don't like ambiguity for the sake of ambiguity. I prefer that the poem have a clear 'manifest purpose,' something the reader can see or hear easily on the first (and possibly only) reading. I do however appreciate a poem that comes with 'complementary ambiguities,' secondary or tertiary interpretations of words or phrases that support or contrast with the first interpretation--that immediately apprehended 'overt' message of the poem. But that's tricky business, as you no doubt know.

"Thirty days hath September, April, June and November.
All the rest have thirty-one, excepting February, which has but twenty-eight,
except in Leap Year, when it has twenty-nine"
