"Just In Time"

Now I'm one of the 'fraternity'
I can't believe it passed me by
Today is a great celebration
So I'd better give it a try.
For today people will be scribbling
Up and down the land
Verses that are thought out
Masterpieces and the bland.
For it's cause for celebration
National Poetry Day
I'm so relieved it was mentioned in passing
So I could enter the fray.
You see it's the last day of September
And this month I've done thirteen
To you it's just a number
But do you know what this will mean?
It's not that I'm superstitious
But there's a chance I might be wrong
It will end up bringing me bad luck
And I'll be a poetry mong.
So as I finish it's time for celebration
Number fourteen this month I hail
Talk about 'double bubble'
As my fanzine just went on sale!

( I was stuck on 13 poems this month, when a mate mistakenly told me it was National Poetry Day, so I wrote this on the bus home. In fact it's on Thursday 2nd October!)
