Title: Quantity not quality
by Sophie from Dorset | in writing, poetry
How many poem have you written?
I've written fifty-six
So far
Not including this one
Four?
Five?
Maybe seven?
Why seven, you ask?
Because I think you look like
You've written seven poems
You have?
Then it was a
Good guess
Can I read them?
Please?
Let's see
Seven poems
Are they any good?
Of course you'd think
That
They're your poems
Number three's not bad
And
Number six needs
Some work
The others are good
But I've written
Fifty-six
And you've only got
Seven
Little poems that you clutch
Close to you
You say that they're
Perfect?
But there are only
Seven
And I have fifty-six
Or fifty-seven
Including this
One
This is my fifty-seventh poem, and I thought that it's quite a big number. Of course, not all my poems are really great, so I wrote this to show that.
