Well ...
What you say is true.
We often ask ...
What the hell ...
Why write anything?
When we haven't a throng of friends
Who will read, and post a comment?

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I love this! And congrats on your second place win! Well deserved. The image conveys so much frustration and your verse more than reflects that relatable foul mood felt when the response doesn't live up to the effort. In this case, you would not have been disappointed, I think:) Well done! Debbie

Thank you so much for the fantastic review and congrats, Debbie. It actually tied with two other people for first place. I really appreciate the generous stars. I was just in one of those moods. Lol. So when this contest came along I just had to add my two cents worth. Haha. I'm glad you liked my little rant, Debbie. Thank you again.

Comment from Lisasview
I so agree, the whole thing seems like a waste of time... I know what it is like to spend hours on a contest entry... plus finding the perfect image and no one seems to read it... Well, not no one because I finally got smart and I am now on Fan lists and people get a notice if I post.
So now some of those people actually read and some even review.
I always review what I read.
I might be your only vote...but who knows...

Lol. Yes, there's a few on here that actually review the people they have fanned. I enter a lot of 'blind' contests so a PM doesn't get sent to fans then. I just had to gripe about not getting any views, let alone reviews, after it was out there for three hours or so. That just happens sometimes. Thank you for the great review and support, Lisa. I really appreciate it. Have yourself a wonderful day.

Looks like you are winning this one...

This is original. I'm going to go out on a limb and give you five stars. If what you say is true, get in touch with me after the contest, and I will give your stuff a try.

Thank you for the great review, Paul. I was just a little aggravated that the piece was up there for hours and it wasn't getting any views. Then this prompt came along so I used it to whine. Lol. I appreciate the stars, friend. Have yourself a great upcoming week.
Comment from Karen Cherry
Amen to that. Why do I have 50 readers, but only 5 reviews? The poem is clever. The picture was complimentary. I Imagine this was hard to do. When you get a chance, please read my first lune poem, my first poem period, and my first writing here, "Remittance". Tell me what you think. Karen

I'll check them out. Thank you for the great review and stars, Karen. Yeah, I don't know why our review count is what it is sometimes. I really appreciate the generous stars. Have yourself a great upcoming week.

Feeling sad for you.

Comment from RodG
Frustrated Speaker has a legitimate gripe.
Few writers on site have viewed--much less reviewed --his piece.
From experience I can commiserate.
Fortunately, this does not happen too often.
