Naught, knot, not

The best author cannot write2

if there is no ink in his pen3

but there is a way to get it right4

for on his keyboard he can pen5

so I wish I may , I wish I might6

acomplish this challenging feat7

as I try with all my might8

and the thoughts that run from my head to my feet9

I will try to make a go and deliver a blow10

to get something on this page11

inhale , exhale and then blow12

for some help ,my friends I might page13

will they ask for payment by cheque14

or offer their help for naught15

I will ask , I will check16

finances depleted , rich I am not17

for I am down to my last buck18

might drown myself in the Bay19

this system of repayment I will buck20

to keep those vultures at bay21

Author notes

Oufffff, the confusion of the english language. This has always been a challenge for me , being that english is not my native tongue...but I had fun   "To BE ME or to BE a BEE"

    I am really quite impressed. it iseems our native tongues each offer their own bit of confusion though. Where we have one word that can mean so many things you have many words for the ame thing... I hope some day to your native tongue with half the dexterity you handle mine...

Too much work for me, I just like to let it flow at will LOL This is a great piece hun, I enjoyed it and can appreciate the work put into it very well, especially after trying some form poetry recently myself. Bravo!!! Good luck in the contest hun
