Enjoyed this honest piece of poetry Earl. I'm not the most athletic person in the world either so I can relate to your sentiments. Thought the line about syntax was very funny. Great job with this refreshing, entertaining poem.

Yes! I can totally relate! I pretty much write for the same reason... Because I can. It doesn't matter if it's great or terrible, I can still do it. LOL love your poem. Best of luck to you in the contest. Hugs.

Hello Earl!
Well, your offering is a "hoot!"
And not only do you write well, I bet you can also "sing and dance" if given the chance... How's that?

Thank you for the smile!

This poem about writing, I Don't Sing or Dance, allows a lot of negatives to push the pen for a more positive result. We may all have a face for radio. Funny poem.

-The poem flows well with
effective imagery and rhyme.
-I like the verse about syntax.

not being very bright, and
your "talents are few."

Your poem struck me right between the eyes. I realized this is some of the same feelings that I have about why I write. A poetic essay that I can relate to.

I think you write because you write well
and have something interesting to say.
I recall great stories about Daniel Boone,
Paladin, Clint, the Alamo and more.
Your poem is well done too.
I can't dance, and I'd never run for public office,
so there' as least two of us.
Best wishes to you.
Robert

Earl:

When it comes to why we write, how we write should not be questioned. As you said in your author's notes, it's more important for us to understand why you write in a contest like this. I suspect, however, that you are understating your other talents. Good luck in the contest.
