Some days I sit alone
Thinking what to do during the day
And hope that my poems are good
"I've won gold!" I wish to say
But alas that day has not passed
And my chest for points lays empty
Although I search for a contest or comment
I have not even close to what's plenty
I held a contest once
Because I thought it would be kind to give
And my 303 points came and went. Gone.
And now my greediness you must forgive
For now I seek points to hold a contest
Perhaps just to have it and grin
I've never even won a gold cup, see
Now I want to give someone a time to win
When I hold my contest next time
I'll finally give money to all
Finally, no holding back contest
And hopefully my contest won't be so small
So please, I'm asking so kindly
If I could have some points too
Have a contest and have fun
And I will be so thankful to you!

Oh, bless your heart!
This was so entertaining yet I could feel your desire for that first gold trophy. I know that feeling, and I'm sure you will soon know the feeling of your first gold. Thank you so much for this delightful read and good luck in the contest. Patricia
