Rhyme Battle X

The contest had called for the most rhyme poets not wasting any soup time perched upon their not so comfy chairs their fingers pounded their keyboards with flair They knew the competition was stiff as they daily checked the competitive list some had smoke coming out of their ears while others we're frustrated close to tears With their rhymes pouring out on the computer screen they all had the same poetic soupy dream dressed up as cowboys and cowgirls all around they posted their poems ready for the soupy showdown Meanwhile eagerly waiting to see if they placed they heard their spurs clink as they back and forth paced 3-7-18

This sounds like me! I hate it when the smoke comes out of my ears though! Nice rhyme, to me it seems a couplet, but could be both, anyway this is funny and paints a picture of stiff competition!..........good write.......pat
