Been there, done that! Laryngitis sucks, so I totally feel for the poor, poorly piggy. Such a cute little poem with so few syllables. Very well done.

Thank you so much, Deborah, for your lovely review! I think he's more his old self again now. Some reviewers wished his oink never to return:) Debbie

Hahahaha! Poor pig. People want him mute. Sad, just sad. (Lol)
(My pleasure -- I'm grinning again, being reminded of this post.)

This was such a fun poem to read. I loved the use of the letter d repeatedly. It was quick paced and just silly enough to make me laugh. Very well written and enjoyable. Gretchen

You creatively met the challenge of this unusual poetry prompt. Your brief story about a poor pig who lost his voice is quite humorous. Your artwork compliments the story. Best wishes in the contest.

A pig that has no voice is not good for even grunting.
But pigs have valves that are used for medical reasons. They save lives by using the valves for heart surgery.
We had pigs years ago and were sold for good reasons.
I wonder if this image pig got shots so he or she stays well.

Well done with accomplishing the task of writing a 1-1-2-12 poem and in the process you have a humorous story of poor pig who is disgruntled because of having laryngitis.

Aww, the poor pig, fancy losing his oink! Lol. I had laryngitis when I was a child, I swear my parents were happy!!
You've done an amazing job with this 1-1-2-12 contest entry, the words fit perfectly, and it is so funny! I also liked your use of aliteration, with 'poor pig' and 'disarmingly disgruntled' very well done. Good luck in the contest. :)) Sandra xx
