31 poems in 30 days. Napowrimo.

31 poems in 30 days.
Napowrimo.

Has it been good?
Has it been fun?
Successful? Now that it’s done?

We’ll assess success...
I certainly was up to the test.
Managed a sizeable poem every day,
Not always the best; I’ll admit and say.
But I did it.
And feel quite smug.
I really caught the writing bug.

But.
There was a decided lack of credit.
Now, I don’t look for praise and don’t often get it...
Truth is – I was amongst hundreds of other participants
And so, I got lost, I didn’t really ever stand much chance.

I think.
But I’m not really sure.
That I wrote a couple of bits that were
Really quite good.
Didn’t I deserve more hits?
For those good bits?
Whatever.

And as for participant of the day.
Managing a four syllable landay
And an eight word gomolotay
Again. Whatever .  Nuff said.

I really enjoyed the challenge. And thank you all.
All told 7500 odd words (often quite)
My apologies if I wasn’t always polite.


Dave Strong.
