Damn, I missed one thousand
I simply forgot,
to keep track, it's such a lot
it took Sudhir to remind
I'd reached a thousand, he was so kind
And now it seems I've done it again
My postings read two thousand and ten
Well, actually it's two thousand thirteen
I forgo three, don't need to be mean
The best of all I'm Elite
I think that is really neat
As my rating starts to climb
I'm fifty-one now that is fine
The only thing with which I'm ******
Is all the praise that I have missed
Although truly, without a doubt
Since posting here my hat size has blown out
I grin and post most everyday
Nothing could keep me long, away
As I read and post it's no surprise
The numbers climb before my eyes
So thanks to all my passions friends
Like you I hope this never ends.
Be well, write on, everyone
The goal for me three thousand and one.
