You must closet yourself in a nook,
Forget fame and glory,
And just tell the story,

It's your thirty seconds of fame.
Just so long as it's got a swell hook.

I like your new look. Happy Birthday!! Two entries--one for each!
(You should hire a maid and a cook)
Now be sure that your writing's not lame.
I'm not feeling very creative today, but I did want to say Happy Birthday!!

I know 'cause I keep doin' the same!
Lovely! This is going to be tough to judge. Keep 'em coming, and thanks for the birthday wishes, too.
Happy Birthday!
I have two for the blogger one:
But Mo, I'm so glad that you came.

Too bad that my blog is so lame.
Happy birthday! Wonderful. We're both Tauruses. If I dug astrology that would mean something, I know. I'll promote this contest pronto as my rhyme muscle shriveled up and died last night.
Happy birthday! I hope you had a great day with your family. :)

As you climb up the ladder to fame
I'm not wantin' to put you to shame,
But I see you've been googlin' your name,
My stat counter's showin',
Your visits are growin',
This feedin' your ego? Quite lame!
Barbjn, with as pronounced a limp as any
PS Happy Birthday!
