Who haven’t yet entered Contest #10


www.allpoetry.com/contest/2347048


What sort of Huguenauty poet are you?
For our current contest are you going to write?
Are you loyal, trusty, dinkum and true blue
or just like jellyfish and vegemite?

We see your poems appear in mixed contests
(a few of which, we think, verge on absurd)
but, for OUR latest (possibly our best),
you haven’t entered yet a single word.

What sort of Huguenaut, we ask, are you?
Have you no sentiment, no guilt, no shame?
When the Roll of Honour’s there for all to view,
will YOU be listed as a Knight or Dame?

Each entrant is entitled to a vote
so hurry please, or else you’ll miss the boat!

Hugh R. April 20th. 2007.

    I couldn't understand why I've been getting comment notices on this, now I see that Hugh has put me as collaborator... I plead innocent but just to make it official, I'm gonna edit the link so it's clickable

    Give time dad, give time.
    Australia is a huge country
    we need time to praise it right
    or the aussies might get cranky
    I have an idea of what I want to write
    just don't want to be in a hurry

    Easier to write about sitting on a terrace drinking cocktails, or a haiku about bunnies and easter chocolates, then to put together wombats, aborigines and kangaroos

    Sorry, blue, you've lost me on this one. Maybe you had a schooner too many........................................ or you wandered past the Black Stump.

    think this gets the message out quite well- write a poem or else? LOL Cute, easy to read and understand what you are saying here - all should stick together and support a fellow Aussie.
