This one is different, Nolan. The rhyme in the first four lines is a great start. This might give you an idea of how to portray the end of the show.

    You re absolutely correct. I had not given thought as to how it should or even could end. Now you have given me much food for thought.

Love this! Definitely satirical and such an easy read. So fun with the delete and insert line. This flows well and is seamless for the reader. Thanks and good luck!

    Please check out the THE WIND KISS on the "Gone Away" contest. I had to lengthen my original, but I hope you like it.
    Thanks, C.

The author's words made me smile! And I am sure this is exactly what
goes on behind the scenes! The poem is thought provoking, interesting, descriptive and creative. Thank you for the author's notes - I believe this goes in many places! The artwork is perfect and goes well with this poem!

    Thank you. It does not really take much of a stretch based on what paying attention discloses.

I really enjoyed following you in imagination. It reads as though it is currently happening, and you might be present for the change of hosts. It's not easy to present a whole poem of action, but you did it.

This is a good poem. The text is a great size. The message is stated with clarity and is easy to understand. This is how I too remember the start of TV newscasts in movies.
Your poem box needs to be extended. Drop the first line down one space and go to the end of the last line and hit enter once. A poem presents better with spacing around the text. The visual fits well. Thanks for sharing.
P.S Great new profile photo.

    Thank you on all counts. I had to be reminded that presentation is vital in all areas of display.

Very well done, and oh, by the way I wish the thought would be executed by our television commentators who egregiously lean in one direction.
It's been a while since I have seen a release from you, and honestly, I was thinking that a day or two ago while reviewing my buddy list.

    Thank you for your review comments. You will never be bombarded by my posts. I only post when I feel I have something new or novel to say. I do not post unless I can promote my post. You will never see a post from with the barest minimum of 2 cents. Why even bother?
reply by Tom Horonzy on 15-Mar-2023
    I bother because my creativity value is stuck wide open, and I like reading what I write, and believe someone else may like it too, but I understand. Reviews are rarely given with a two cent pledge but I read what I can and if the piece is worthy of comment booty or not I say something. Be well. It was nice hearing from you.

    Thank you. I am not saying I won't read and review an unsupported work. I am saying that it shows a lack of belief in your own work if you are not willing to promote it.
reply by Tom Horonzy on 15-Mar-2023
    I can see that too, but I'd have to review from sunrise to sunset to afford promoting all I write or buy in with cash, but I have always believed in a penny saved is ...

    Thank you, and do not worry about Harry, he knows the game and will survive just fine.

While totally imaginary, your well-written poem, I am certain, has some truth to it. Particularly smaller stations where someone starting out thinks they have it made landing a spot, not realizing it is a game of musical chairs. They are gone the next day.
Best wishes,
Mary

Yes, there's probably so much going on behind the scenes that it's impossible to ever know exactly what is going on, and I'm sure we wouldn't want to know it all. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

This was a nicely written poem about what I'm sure does happen in newsrooms every morning. I like the way you poke fun at these news stories with your line, "Delete Harry, insert Jacob," as if there's nothing new , but only the names have changed. Well done.

    Thank you, I have watched the progression of many late night/early morning newscasters on the ABC TV Network. The people have gone on to fame and prominent roles in the TV industry. Their success stories have inspired very much this poem.
