Flightless
I tried and failed so many times
This one here is sure fly
Here is how the others went
A journey on paper not well spent
My pen won't flow my pencil lead broke
I tried in crayon it never spoke
Lots of colors went in the can
One came out like "Sam I am"
My poems I wrote would not take flight
I even glued one to a kite
I cut the strings it flew for a bit
Until a pigeon it did hit
Back to the ground that poem came
Two more times results the same
This last one written from a chair
I'll send it whole over a copper pair
On its way here its goes...CLICK
Was that the delete key ? That's it I quit
Boomerang contest
