CHALLENGE!


 


Written, I have about every little thing,


Our camper, our boats, Rufuz and the birds that do sing,


My life not so tragic, as I may make you tend to believe,


Can any of us say any different, poetry is a place to relieve…


 


So herein is my challenge, oh friends of the poet kind,


No big trophy or red ribbon will be yours if you win,


For a matter of fact we all do win, as we all get to read of others sin,


Take each category in the dens long sordid list in the categories bin,


Write a short story, or poem or what you like, from each category…


 


I may find it hard, as I have never strayed very far from humor,


Philosophy has also been a place I have hung my hat, or has that been rumor?


Some horror have I done, some self help, some relationships as well,


This should or could be a good challenge, getting us all some more writes,


As well as teaching some of us how to branch out or so it might…
