A year's worth of poems, every week for 52 weeks, spanning 2023 and 2024, plus the year following, from August 2024 to August 2025.(provided I live that long, of course).
Thank you, Allan Charles 🐾 Busy Busy. I've contested the Charlie Chaplin thing a couple of times, won once, if I remember correctly. But it's the kind of thing I try when bored and have nothing better to do - just doesn't seem to have happened lately.
Self effacing, oh Feb, you stand,
smallest of the great monthly band,
content with the standard weeks four
and rarely demand a day more.
Though firmly in winter’s cold camp,
there’s hope in your briefest of stamps,
you might threaten a terrible freeze,
but with coming of spring you still tease.
Cold and grey as you so often are,
there’s good reason to make you a star,
while others take forever to run,
one blink and February’s done!
