Congratulations. By your entry
you haven't a chance to be d.q'd in this contest.
I should have entered it, for what I just writ is also a Landay, but writing short submissions does not turn me on.
Good Luck.

Hi Patricia...I was just reading the contest entries and this gave me such a laugh. Rich with sarcasm, wickedly clever. I love it. Get's my vote.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
There is much jealousy in the church community as people want to be favoured and considered good citizens and this is an example of the hypocrisy that sometimes exists, I enjoyed your words her Patricia, it is those who silently do good without expecting rewards that get my vote and they are pillars of the community, wise words here, love Dolly x

Comment from Terry Broxson
LOL, a very fun little poem! I don't know if vicar needs to be capitalized or not, but it doesn't affect the humor or anything else. Very nice job, good luck in the contest. Terry.

Thank you for your kind review.
Comment from GWHARGIS
I have no idea why I found this so funny. Maybe the imagined connection between the vicar offering his private car to a random churchgoer. This was definitely satirical. Great job and thank you for posting. Gretchen

He is just very nice. Thanks for the review.
Comment from RodG
The Speaker definitely is being sarcastic here as she jeers a fellow churchgoer. One wonders if she's jealous. I found myself chuckling as I listened to this one-way conversation. Rod

Comment from patcelaw
I love this piece of work. Your first line is how many people think of themselves in the church. And the sarcasm in the second line is absolutely wonderful. I did have to chuckle a bit. Have a good day and God bless Patricia.

Comment from Bill Schott
This landay, The Favor, has the proper sarcasm, I guess, but you have ten syllables in the first line. Only nine are allowed.

Make a contraction of "you are" and you're gold.

Thank you for pointing out the mistake. I have corrected it.
Comment from Jesse James Doty
Nice try at the newfangled contest. I question whether you followed the rules right. This questions the friend of the vicar who is seeking favoritism from him by riding in his Prius.
