Apology Poem

I have really missed the boat, bypassing my responsibility And now I feel like a goat as I look back and certainly see So many of you have written and I did not even respond But for all of you I am truly smitten and also I am very fond I have no reason for there is no justification for this being the case Like going out of season it’s a problem that I sincerely want to face Thank you for every single kind word and all of your time and thought And how your passions have stirred the happiness that I have always sought Sorry if I offended any of you this was certainly never my intention It wasn’t that I withdrew it was just Yahoo Mail failed to mention But I still take all the blame for I should’ve checked my own site more And now I feel some shame for never answering these knocks on the door So I will try my best and become a better poetry soup citizen Measuring up to all the rest, The way things were way back when With my apologies to all for I fondly appreciate everyone on this site I just wanted to give everyone a call and let you know that I wasn’t right
