Poetry Contest

Written for a fun February workplace contest

Roses are red
Violets are blue
It's February
And we invite you

To write us a poem
A sonnet or song
Just let the words out
Doesn't have to take long

The topic is LOVE
Plutonic or true
Requited or star-crossed
The choice, up to you

There's only one rule
It must be PG
As this is a workplace
HR's made the plea

Be you wordsmith or comic
Just let it flow
We'll up-vote our favorites
So that way we'll know

The contest winner
By popular vote
So scribble it out
And post what your wrote

Welcome, dear Traveler, to our domain.

We, the keepers of this checkpoint, are here to help you take heed

Listen well to our advice for there are many dangers before you

Pay close attention to all we say, and success shall be yours

Ignore our guidance and know that you will make a wonderful meal for the creatures beyond,

and we have all the popcorn we could want for to enjoy the show.

Fare thee well!
