Lol. Well I found it funny. I especially liked the misspelling of think. My fat fingers are constantly mistyping. I post from my phone so the keyboard is tiny. I always appreciate help unless they try to rewrite my story and turn it into theirs. Great piece. Gretchen

Your poem made me laugh before coffee, a difficult thing to do. You creatively stated writers block. Something we on Fanstory can relate too. The picture adds to the appeal of your words.

Comment from Wendy G
Well done. It is sometimes quite difficult to write such a poem with errors for the sake of humour. Autocorrect gets very upset as well. This fun piece bade me smile - and recognise your skill. Best wishes for your entry!

Comment from Nina Sexton
Haha. That's hysterical. I love the coupled artwork and chalkboard-like background feeling it gave. There's no denying you're a pro. Even with the intended mis-spelling and usage, you nailed it! Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Mary Vigasin
As a non-poet, I found this delightful and fun.
While done in humor, and the mistakes are intentional, it is a good reminder that poetry takes a considerable amount of dedication and talent.
Good luck in the contest

Comment from Michele Harber
This is very cute, but I actually love that someone tried to help you correct your "mistakes." They may have misunderstood your point, but at least they had good intention. I enjoyed your humor (and actually read the earlier version as well, where your verse on rhyme didn't rhyme. This is a fun approach to the prompt, and I enjoyed your rhymes. Good luck in the contest.

Thanks Michelle. Eleri, who started the contest thought there was a possibility that it could be disqualified so I thought I better correct that part, and that was the best response that would still sound like I didn't know what I was doing. Lol... I have been dq'd for less than that in the past and it really is disappointing, so I thought I better not take a chance.
Thanks for your very kind comments and as always you are so appreciated.

Thank you. I understand why you were worried, as they did want the poem to rhyme. I'd hope they'd have more of a sense of humor than that, but I certainly wouldn't bet the house on that. I liked it both ways, but don't blame you for playing it safe.
