The rain is coming down with force,
no gardening today.
I'll just sit here and read the poems
that have been sent my way.

I'm reading fast as I can read,
and enjoying every one.
But this is just one of those tasks,
that never will get done.

As soon as I have answered one,
another takes its place.
It's like I'm on a merry-go-around
in a never ending chase.

Yeah! There I think I've done it,
though it's taken me an age.
I've read and answered every one,
but only the first page.

LOL !
It is a never-ending pleasure task !
Quite a cute render here.
I've been trying to keep up for eons !
Such joy in finding so many talented poets in one remarkable circle.

You're right, I always feel I've neglected someone and there just isn't time to read all of them, even now when I'm not working, I can't but I enjoy those I do.
