Poem from Challenge Number Five



                             Another poem, tis number five

                               My sweethearts challenge

                                       And man alive

                                     Should I decline?

                                    Say no and whine?

                                  A musing challenge thus?

                                        And here's a plus

                                         There is a prize

                              A dinner date? I must surmise!

                                           A golden ring?

                                          A curious thing?

                                        My Muse has flown

                                          I'm on my own

                                            To try to write

Yes, I kind of thought the same. I still doubted I could complete the challenge though....and I am to write ten a day so I have not completed the challenge as yet! We will see I guess!

Thank you Tom! I was sure trying to get them before the clock struck 12:00 a.m. I still didn't think I could do it. Well, yesterday's goal was done!
