I’m sorry if I don’t get to you,

I apologise, I’m slow,

four hundred plus emails,

my inbox about to blow!

 

I know I’m not quite regular,

at times I can be slack;

I promise I’ll try to visit you,

and leave a message back!

 

My stupid orange counter thing,

It only goes to nine;

I have to trawl the comments page,

to check, approve, decline!

 

The spam thing – what’s all that about?

Messages, I just don’t get??

Enlarge my what?!! Increase my stats?!

Delete, delete, forget!!

 

I try my best, I really do,

so many blogs to read,

It’s becoming like a full time job,

an assistant, I so need!

 

I’d like to say to everyone,

who’s liked or followed me,

to each I’d give a big old hug,

you’ve all inspired me!!
