I try to enter all the contests,
with hopes that I might win.
I write about my feelings
are they good enough to send?

I try to stimulate thought,
while keeping the subject in mind.
Using the rules of the contests,
to help in creating my design.

I put the words into sentences,
I inject a little prose.
Should I be sincere or funny,
well only heaven knows.

I wonder what they'll be thinking,
what will it take to win?
Which way should, I say that?
Does it matter in the end?

So I enter my best work,
sit back and bite my nails.
Watch as the days go slowly by
crawling like they were snails.

Finally the end is near
and the waiting comes to a halt.
No one else chose to enter
and I won it by default.

So is this " A Tribute To Talent? "
or should anyone be so vain?
I wonder if they enjoyed the reading
and how long till I win again?
