First, I'd like to thank Becky of Becky's Books for giving my book Poem Depot a rave review on Goodreads. She LOVED LOVED LOVED the book and I love her for that. But now I turn my attention to THE BLURB. Over the years I have been asked to write many blurbs for people, but I must tell you, I don't enjoy it for quite often Blurbee writes God-awful stuff. In any event, although many seek blurbs, and many write blurbs, how many have written an ode to a blurb? None, I venture. Until now.
The Blurb
The blurb's a noun
and not a verb,
except for my
late Uncle Herb,
who loved to blurb,
and blurb,
and blurb.

Poem Depot is on my to read list for sure. Love your ode to a blurb.
How did I miss Poem Depot???
Correcting that in 3, 2, 1...NOW!
Wonderful! I'm sure Blurb would thank you if he wasn't so buy blurbing with Uncle Herb.
Ugh... that's "busy" not "buy"-- too busy to bother with spell check too, evidently.
bravo!

Thank you to Catherine Johnson, Mary Lee, Michelle, and Jan and Uncle Herb.
