Write Another One

Every story leads to the next.

Write Another One

I found a site called Vocal,

Where my voice could weigh a ton.

I sat down to write some stories

And I'd only just begun.

First advice for clearer skin,

I thought "writing sure is fun."

Then passed along some skincare tricks,

Until the battle could be won.

Now write another one.

Then jars of oats filled up my fridge,

Prepared before the morning sun.

Another idea filled my brain

Back to my computer I did run.

Now write another one.

I then adopted a cute orange feline,

And responsibility had come.

I formed a list of cat care tips,

With each title I tried to pun.

Now write another one.

Next came the story close to home,

Nowhere left for me to run.

So I gave my grief a place to breathe,

My wounds healed when words were spun.

Now write another one.

I'd shared my heart and said my piece,

So I traded tears for reviewing fun.

The Bermuda Triangle was too ordinary

Some only gave the trip a one.

"What next?" I asked an empty page.

And my answer soon did come.

A poem with one repeated line,

About all the writing I had done.

Oh, look. I just wrote another one.

For Fun
