Prompt: Note to accompany submission (in rhyme)

Write a short note in rhyme to accompany your manuscript or poetry/greeting card submission.

Such as:

Dear Editor, please find enclosed
some lovely verses I composed.
I hope they're satisfactory
so you won't send them back to me!

Dear Editor, I send to you
A story that I hope you'll view.
The characters are funny folks —
They tell some bad off-colour jokes.
The plot is straight and rather thin,
But in the end, the good guys win.
I hope you'll read it all today,
And send a large-ish cheque my way!

Dear Editor - Enclosed, you'll find,
a story of the fiction kind.

It's got a hero bold and strong,
and elfin folks who do things wrong.
A lovely damsel in distress,
who ends up in a wedding dress.

It's not a normal fairy tale.
So read it all - without fail.
This book you'll find is quite a gift...
Please send your check to -- Tammy Swift.:lol

There is a contest this month at writers digest with a prompt like that if anyone is interested.

www.writersdigest.com/con...isplay.asp

Deadline is the 10th. I would share my entry...but I won't yet hehehe.

here goes

The tenderest touch of your velvety fingers
Sank down to my soul, where it lives and it lingers

That touch has kept me through the darkest of days
since that ship sailed from port, and we parted our ways

I carry that touch like the sweetest dear friend
Until that sweet moment I see you, and give it back to you again.

With love, your dearest soldier.
