Apologies for posting this so early β Iβve been running around like crazy trying to get everything ready for the wedding (eeeee 26 days to go!). I wanted to make sure this got done, too, and I know itβs just going to get busier! So, without further ado, and with many thanks to Poe for letting me borrow his structure, I present:
The Raffle
Once upon a Monday bleary, while I labored, weak and weary,
With a faint but noticeable hangover from the night before
While I plodded, nearly sleeping, suddenly there came a beeping,
From my cell phone, reminder bleeping, in my purse upon the floor
ββTis some alert,β I muttered, βA thing to do, of this Iβm sure!β
Only this and nothing more.βAh, distinctly I moved over, it was in the cool October;
And I rummaged through my purse for the cell phone I deplore
Eagerly I wished to mute it;βvainly I had sought to root it
From my purse that needed cleaning, messy, always, evermoreβ
From the depths of my coach handbag, took the phone from out its core
Set to snooze ten minutes more.And the silence, quite desired, trying hard to not get fired
Bought another ten more minutes for things I needed done before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating
βGirl you got this, get that fax sent, then have a little coffee more!β
Get through the day and then at 6pm youβre off and out the door;β
Then youβll get that poem done, sure.βPresently the day grew longer; and my nerves got nice and stronger,
βWindstone Forum,β said I, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I had not won, when I agreed to get this poem done,
But in the months that part us, a lovely Dragon came unto my door,
And now I can win this raffle β nevermore
All my windstones ever after must be purchased from the store.~FIN
