Just because I can . . .


I wrote this poem because a friend
asked why, I would undertake such
an adventure. Well . . .

Why?

Why . . .
Well why not?
I mean why shouldn’t I try?
To fill a blank page!

Why not?
Fill it with . . ,
Dots and dashes,
“t’s” and “v’s”.

Why?
Because I want to,
Between you and me,
I love a challenge!

Why not?
If others are having a go,
Then why not me?
Is there any reason?

Why?
I can’t write . . .
Thirty-one poems
In thirty-one days?

Of course Not!
So word by word,
Line by line,
Watch poems fill the page!
