Jerry T Curtis Poet Rhyme

No Gain No Pain

I want to thank all of the judges
and I'll try to make it quite clear
for not letting me win in your contest
I seem to lose weight every year
I write my heart out on paper
and I send it with hope, but at last
It resist being read by you people
but has no trouble finding the trash
Still I say, I must give you my thanks
And nothing more need now be said
'cause if I won one of your contest
I couldn't bare the weight of my head

CayCay Godwin December 7, 2015 at 8:27 PM I like the content and that it was said in humor. I don't understand the word 'every' at the end of the 4th line, but I did enjoy your write very much. Keep your pen going, judges or no ... CayCay Jerry T Curtis December 8, 2015 at 5:41 AM Thanks CayCay, I was missing the word "Year"

Lindsay Laurie December 7, 2015 at 8:23 PM G'day Jerry... see, by your own words, the judges are only trying to keep your ego in check. I really did enjoy this poem - Lindsay Jerry T Curtis December 8, 2015 at 5:49 AM Yes Lindsay, If it weren't for those judges, I might be rolling around on my noggin. It's true I've seen some Mellon heads, everything they do is "Great", that it becomes difficult for them to write a "Good" poem (I'm talking professionals not Soupers)
