Six Seven Eight Eleven Seventeen Three...

Countdown To 55

A one two, tie my shoe.
Three, four, I need lots more.
Five, six, I’ll not throw bricks
unless I’m really bored.
Seven, eight, this is my fate,
the count is thirty-two
unless hyphens count as one.
It’s time to run, I’m almost done,
just need a little more
and just in time for sure...

I noticed this 55 word poem meme has been going around after spotting it at Erin’s so without being asked or knowing any rules other than the fact that it had to be 55 words, I decided to try my hand at it.

Very cute! I won't count cause I have a tendency to count wrong...

Nice twist.

I had asked Erin to give it a go. Glad to see it spreading. Have linked your poem to mine.
