Hi Wendy,
This short poem does follow these little rules. It seems to be a pun about the length of the poem and shows how sometimes the short poems are harder to write then you think.
Hope you are having a happy Birthday
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Good luck in the contest

You made me laugh with your simple words, and I can relate. Your poem is the best so far, but I have to read them all before voting. The picture added fun to your poem, but your words stand alone.

Some of the contests are not always easy. We pay cash to get into the contest and then we sometimes don't even get a vote. Chart it up to experience, huh?

Oh, you're being too hard on yourself. I think this is adorable. One more 1-6-1 challenge and my head would explode anyway. Good for you for not only trying but giving me a hearty chuckle as well! More often than not Advanced Editor and I are NOT on speaking terms. You're getting MY vote!

I love how you chose to respond to this prompt with cleverness and humor. There is only so much you can say with a total of 8 syllables, but you've managed to say plenty! Well done!

These types of rules are very hard to get anything to come out to where it sounds right or even makes good sense. You did the best you could do with it. I'm sorry you had $5.50 go down the drain. Patricia.

Comment from JSD
Great fun and a lovely response to the silly prompts we put up with. I think you've inspired me to do another of my satires on this, like my 'Bloody Writing Prompts' I wrote once! I feel your pain. Well done - and good luck!

Hey, you got it done! The shortened syllable contests are quite the challenge and you've summed up your feelings effectively. Best wishes for the contest!
