SEND AN AGENT!
Out for my walk on the
back road today
My mind was a blank - I
had nothing to say –
The editing’s done but
there’s no time to play –
Find an agent!
Immediately every excuse
raised its head –
The print in the Yearbook
is too small to read –
And for over-strained
eyes too much screen-glare is bad –
Where’s the agent?
Procrastination’s the
curse of our craft
And reading those
guidelines is too much hard graft –
But to hope they’ll come
looking is simply plain daft –
Get an agent!
Two books I have written
are ready to go
But the Christmas
deliveries are bound to be slow –
Dear Santa – along with
the gifts and ‘Ho-ho!’
Send an agent!
