Cute and funny entry for this contest.
I like your organization into little rhyming stanzas.
The ending gave me a snicker.
I like your presentation too with the red cursive font and your picture.
All over charming poem. Best wishes for you in the contest!

I enjoyed reading your contest entry. I did see tongue-in-cheek humor in it. I once, and it wasn't my fault, got a nasty graham from the IRS. I was teaching for DODDS. Because of some stupid reason my teaching summer school wasn't included on my W2 as reported income. I didn't know that, but the IRS did. Hmmm, it was corrected. Good luck with the with contest. You should show well, this is cute.

My daughter and her husband work for me state of California. She works very hard, her husband not so much...he just doesn't like his job.
I heard it's hard to fire a government employ so there are many slackers...not you. It sounds like you did your job well. I like the good humor and nice presentation.

I got refunded more than I owed so you and I are cool. lol This was a great poem about a job you actually performed. It rhymed well, had a nice rhythm, and was funny. Great job and nice contest entry.

This is thoroughly enjoyable. Having worked in a government department in India, I am able to appreciate the nuance of the functioning of the government. Well done. Good luck in the contest!

Comment from Paul McFarland
It's very difficult to find humor when dealing with the IRS, but the poet has made a good effort. The meter could be cleaned up to make the read smoother.

Comment from MAMONIA
Did you get hate mail when you sent out notices that taxpayers owed money?
That couldn't be too much fun.
But when you issued money, that was better. Then everyone loved you, right?
This is cute, funny and interesting.
Who gets cheered on when they retire?
That's the funniest.
Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from Senyai
Hi Mystery Writer,
This is indeed a poem with humor ... and I'm glad you were never really late for your job :-)
Working for the state tax division must have been fun issuing refunds, but was it delightful to contact people telling them they owed the state money? I don't think I'd have the nerve, lol!
Great entry and good luck in the contest!

Comment from Wendy G
Very enjoyable read. Humorous ending. It seemed that you did your job with a great sense of duty, and good will among you and your coworkers. I would not have received anything fortunately ( not being in your country.) A well written entry. Good wishes.
