Someone gave me a word for the day -Quiddity

quiddity \KWID-ih-tee\, noun

1. The essence, nature, or distinctive peculiarity of a thing.
2. A hairsplitting distinction; a trifling point; a quibble.
3. An eccentricity; an odd feature.


So, in response, I wrote:

She long suffered the Gulf coast humidity,
Glowing lady-like in summer liquidity,
Moving west, she discovered
What dry skin means, and her cupboard
Is filled with bottles of liquid's wet quiddity!
