Sounds Fishy

SOUNDS FISHY

In this recent competition I was number one
And they confirmed officially that I had won
But I actually heard from entrant number two
And she was also told that she had won too
I do wonder what are organisers really for
So few entrants, as there were only four
The prize was a Scottish holiday up in Fife
Not for the full seven days, but only five
I requested if they could extend it to eight
But I never made it there, something I ate

This contest brought to the surface so many clever and just plain fun poems. Congratulations on your win Howard. I guess we have to be carefully of "something I ate!" :( All the best!
