A Week Apology

It’s hard to say

How this can stay

And still be called

“Weekly Wordplay”

When weeks go by

And yet still I

Have nothing up.

It’s disarray.

I know that this

Blog’s been amiss.

So empty like

A white abyss,

And yet the name

Has stayed the same.

Thus in my duties

Am remiss.

But that’s my way.

I seize the day;

Poems are work

And I must play.

Yet here’s a proffer

From your author

So you won’t sigh

While he’s away:

Though now I slack,

One day I’ll track

Down the time to

Bring poems back

Into this blog

So you can hog

The verbal joy

This blog now lacks.

In the meantime,

Please know that I’m

Working on something

Worth the rhyme -

My thoughts refined,

My words designed

To make my two cents

Worth a dime.
