: On the First Day of April by Chrissy710

First day of April

On the first day of April
I write this little rhyme:
the quest now is to keep time.

On the second day of April,
I'll write another line:
so I can see
the quest now is to keep time

On the third day of April
I'm going back to rhyme:
give me a sign
so I can see
the quest now is to keep time

On the fourth day of April
I'll write and make deadline:
this could be fun
give me a sign
so I can see
the quest now is to keep time.

On the fifth day of April
Have made it up in time:
can it be done?
this could be fun
give me a sign
so I can see
the quest now is to keep time.

On the sixth day of April
I'll add in one more line:
surprising you all
can it be done?
this could be fun
give me a sign
so I can see
the quest now is to keep time

On the seventh day of April
I'm running out of rhyme:
but won't let you down
surprising you all
can it be done?
this could be fun
give me a sign
so I can see
the quest now is to keep time

On the eight day of April
Not sure if I can climb:
I'm trying really hard
but won't let you down
surprising you all
can it be done?
this could be fun
give me a sign
so I can see
The quest now is to keep time

On the ninth day of April
I'll see what I can find:
by using a near rhyme
I'm trying very hard
but won't let you down
surprising you all
can it be done?
this could be fun
give me a sign
so I can see
the quest now is to keep time

On the tenth day of April
I feel I'm in decline:
so yes I'm giving up
I'll not use a near rhyme
I really tried so hard
to not let you all down
by surprising you all
thought it could be done
and yes I found it fun
but couldn't find the sign
however I can see
the quest is to keep true RHYME.

Author Notes
Hi All.. This is my Northern hemisphere 1St April NaPoWrMo contest entry

I have loosely used the '12 days of Christmas 'song as my baseline and hope my poem reads and as you can see only did up to 10 Stanza's for my entry. LOL

Thanks to CammyCards for the image Flower Music

I hope you enjoy my effort and Thank you for reading my work

Cheers Christine
