Larry Bradfield Poet Rhyme

Nothingness

There's a place in West Texas simply called Notrees
It's as close to nothing as anybody sees
You can see a hundred miles just by standing there
You can go or you can stay - no one there to care

Bless my soul it's perfect for solitude and prayer

For contest Nothingness, for Julia Ward

Teddy Kimathi May 8, 2016 at 5:49 PM LOL. Very hilarious!!! Congrats Larry, for your well, deserved first placement in the contest!! ;-) Larry Bradfield May 8, 2016 at 9:08 PM Thank you, Teddy. Love it when someone says "LOL" about something I write. I try to be serious about things I write, but something always wants to wander into the funny side.

Julia Ward May 8, 2016 at 6:26 AM A clear winner for the unexpected humor injected into the last line. Well done, Larry! Julia Ward May 8, 2016 at 12:07 PM You did so well! So many people didn't follow the rules... Julia, with best wishes. Larry Bradfield May 8, 2016 at 10:09 AM Thank you, Julia and thanks for sponsoring the contest...lots of fun!!
