"I don't have anything to write about." Sue explained.
"Well Rick does." Rachyl countered, "How come you don't?"
Well, blogging ain't easy for us all the time you know... In fact, sometimes it's downright hard. I was somehow driven to put it all in rhyme this time:
Just because we both have blogs
you can't always expect
the words to drip and flow with ease
or witty thoughts connect.
Sometimes when we try to post
we notice and we see
that everything that dribbles out
Is boring as can be.
It would be nice if every post
had some wit and fun
but sometimes only bland exists
when our "exciting" day is done.
All we can do is sigh and think
of something good to write
something that will bring a smile
or otherwise delight.
There are times when we sit down
to write our greatest tale
we knew we had it all worked out
but the words just seemed to fail.
The things that happen in our lives
to us may be big news
but when another reads our stuff
could be boring to peruse.
Some blog posts are diaries
or "What I did today:"
and others are fond memories
of things that slipped away.
Some posts are a chronicle
of an occurrence or event
we hope to get it written down
before our minds have went.
Some posts are quite negative
and more of a soapbox rant
when something gets under your skin
that you try to forget, but can't.
Some of my favorite posts have been
the ones like this that rhyme.
I think that they're more special
perhaps a tad sublime.
Apparently these poems I do
are, by readers, not preferred;
For comments from my readers
are hardly ever heard.
Perhaps that it's instead the case
that folks don't want to see
an attempt to be creative
or any such debris.
Maybe dirt is what they want
like magazines we read.
Who did what, to who, and how
is what the readers need.
I hope I pointed all of you
to what our blogs entail
pleasing everyone is hard
and we sometimes fail.
