Just Sixty Four

One hundred and eighty words you say
For to write a poem and make your day
Attempting a task for to do as you ask
As striving towards your criteria to meet
For me that would be such a massive feat
My poems can be too long 
your attention span I’d lose
So I’ll submit
this little bit
and hope it’s mine you choose

Change chose to choose and this will be perfect. I tend to be verbose and I didn’t submit one soon enough. Good luck in the contest.
