Cute and funny, I think you've proved the point that poets can write about anything, even the thought of entering a contest.

Good luck.

Whimsical, fun poem. The rhyme scheme is consistent. It's a challenge to find four consistent rhymes for each stanza while not forcing the text to fit. Your rhyme is highly effective and adds to the poems fun nature.

Editing note:
"I've checked out all the contest now..."
--"all" suggests more than one, so it seems "contest" should be plural (contests)
------------
"And I'm still lying her real snug..."
--change "her" to "here"
---------
A thought:
"I hope it meets requirement set..."
--should it be "requirements?" it might read smoother as "the requirements"

I loved the wit and the picture was most appropriate! Excellent rhyming and a most enjoyable read. In verse 2, it should read contests. Faye

Hello :)

I know that feeling, when you are warm under the covers and there is nothing that needs doing, and you just lie there reading or writing poetry. It is the best feeling. Nice rhyme and the poem flows well. Good job!

I couldn't quite decided if you meant this to be a contest
entry or not. It isn't listed in a contest, so I have to
assume not. This sounds like me some days. I want to write
but a few more hours in bed seems like heaven, so I will
choose heaven this time. Nice write and I like the pic, too!

    Hi Joyce, Yes this was written for the contest 'are you a poet ' in today's prompt, but when I was finalising the entry I entered it into poetry instead so now it is just on the normal site .I realized my mistake when I got my first review, I wrote this this morning before getting out of bed and saw the contests thought I would have a go,at this one but like I can do sometimes not concentrate so that is how it wound up in general poetry Oh well I may still try an entry but my muse is stretched lol Thanks for reading this anyway Cheers Christine😃

    Oh, no problem. It is still a great piece for your profile and status. I just noticed no contest sign was on the
    write. It's a winner either way! Yeah!

-I love the photo, but what time that must take!
-Poem is cleverly written with a good rhyme scheme.
-I like all the things you bring up about writing.
-Some things that stood out for me are:
* "The pressure's on now for my muse, and words for her to bring"
* "I hope it meets requirement set, is that not what you asked?"
-A few things to consider:
*all the contest now (contests)
*about, the day (comma not needed, as it is breaking up the phrase)
*suceed. (succeed)
*lying her (here)

    Hello respa1 and thanks for reading my poem I do so much enjoy your support and helpful hints. I must admit this was a little rushed as I was tryong to get it written before entering it into the contest prompt 'are you a poet' bit when I finished it I accidently put into poetry instead ( not concentrating) so i may have to try another write for that if I can get my muse working again lol I will correct the mistakes and love the fact you always give me a great feedback with points to consider. so a big Thank you and Cheer to you Christine😃

Hi, Christine

_ These little critters are soooo neat!
_ We used to have them daily after housekeeping when we were on our cruise. Fun!
_ This is really cute. You just never know what can be running through those little critters minds---no, not at all. (*<*)
_ I like this---it gave me a chuckle.

Cheers & Blessings
Keep Smilin'... Jax (*:*)
