I have taken up the Writing 101 Poem a day challenge for myself.
I wouldn’t say I am a very good writer, and I’m definitely a lousy poet, but as I’m new to blogging I thought I would give it a go anyway. The chances are all my poems will be humorous Limericks as any attempt at anything more serious would no-doubt end in tears.
Each day I am emailled a word to use as the basis of the poem for the day and that will be my guiding feature.
Day 1 – Magic
The Banker was feeling nostalgic,
Remembers how he used to do magic,
Enthusiasm he lacked,
So he gave up his act,
Isn’t his story just tragic?

Yep, definitely tragic! The world needs more magicians and fewer bankers, I reckon.

You are better at it than you gave away. Maybe you are just being humble with your writing skills? Hopefully you wouldn’t give it up. Wouldn’t that be just tragic?

I wonder what happened to his magic? Yes it is tragic maybe he is simply feeling lethargic 🙂 Short and nice.
