Twas the Night

Twas the night Barbara tagged me, Carolyn tagged her
My mind had gone blank, my pen did not stir
The paper  was bare as it lay on the table Can I continue the tag or am I unable
The Poets all huddled by the computer, HG having problems tagging a tutor 
When what to my wandering mind should appear A great POET to tag
Someone that  I hold dear, My Brother Ruben Ortellao YOU are Tagged
