Golden Llama

Call your daddy and your mama
It’s time to win a Golden Llama!*
A prize created to embolden
A prize of llama that is golden!

If you want a chance at glory
Click on this to read the story
About a way I once looked scary
Because of growth out of my nares.

Because our very special Pal
That famous doc named Dr. Val
Is listing it with posts profound
And linking it in her Grand Rounds

But not just any rounds so grand
For Dr. Val is in demand!
Where can you find her blog buffet?
The blog for USA Today!

I tip my hat to our dear Frau
she’s really hit the big-time now.
Her post should reach each demographic
(It also will increase my traffic!)

And so I offer my award
Once thought forgotten, now restored
To those so gifted who compose
A clever verse about the nose.

No need for meter or for rhyme
No need for images sublime
Write whatever does excite you
Ballad, ode, or even haiku

And then send me your magnum opus
Using cyber hocus pocus
Go to this page for your submission
Then wait for fame and recognition

A Golden Prize awaits the clever
A just reward for your endeavor
But don’t wait long, the clock is ticking
Soon comes the hour I do my picking.

What if your verse, however gallant
Shows you lack a shred of talent?
I promise I will not be cruel
And make you show up like a fool.

This could be your shining moment!
A celebration you will foment
Folks far away as Yokohama
Will know you won a golden llama.

    I think that I shall never see
    A nose as lovely as the one on thee.
    With peaks and valleys
    All in a row,
    But my oh my
    It makes for a beautiful show.
    So Romanesque
    So Victorian sweet,
    I truly think you’ve got
    Jimmy Durante beat!
    He’s funny, you’re funny,
    He’s old, you’re young.
    But between you and me
    His is more runny.
    So love your schnoz
    Enjoy its dignified flare,
    Because never again
    Will I ever stare.

      I hope you received my submission, or else it was stolen by the rhino patsies of cyberspace!

      • Rob

        No, I did not get anything from you, Dr.
