Five days must be a long long time
a few more dates, it's not a crime.
It was, I say, for sure, your turn
each post is capable to earn
a prompt and relevant reply
that is, unless you're slow and shy!
A poem was dispatched to you
meanwhile, nearby, Australia Zoo
a friend while diving died at sea
it shattered many, also me.
So, write, sweet girl, you don't offend
I always have an ear to lend.

I can't take credit for this, it was sent to me
by John W. Hall for posting in his name.
