Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Wahhhhh I Didn'T Get Potd - For Nina

I didn’t get poem of the day
I’m gutted, what more can I say
I daren’t even peak
At poem of the week
I suspect it’s down to foul play!

4/3/19

Poet's Notes. Nina and I had been having some banter about POTD/POTW. Yesterday Nina got POTW 

This tongue firmly in cheek poem  is posted with full permission of Nina and after she gave me her assurances that her poem being chosen for POTW is COMPLETELY unrelated to her generous donation to Poetry Soup! (Joke))
