You'Re a Winner
If I could win I would fly,
Across the big wide open sky,
And laugh at those who didn't try,
To get published in a great big book.
Oh how I desperately long to see,
My name in a huge Anthology,
With others just as naive as me,
I can't wait to take a look.
So I'll take a moment after I rest,
To pen some lines for your contest,
And swear on my heart they are the best,
While on the stove my potatoes cook.
So as soon as you can, send the letter,
That tells me my poetry is so much better,
And I'll dance free and totally unfettered,
While you think I've taken the hook!
