Keep trying do the cash ones that are free to enter. Do what I do and encourage your friends to vote even when they don't write, The more that vote, the fairer it gets. Karen

Ahhh! My mouth's watering from just looking at the artwork. :-)
Damn the consequences! It's the real-time frolic that counts. LOL
Successfully fulfilled the contest's line and syllable criteria.
Hmm! But wuld one want to party like a failed old time? Or is it saying we fail to party like we used to in old times? Oh well, the hangover's worth it. LOL

Excellent play on words in this delightful 1-6-1 poem for the contest. Great picture and presentation as well. Cheers, bottoms up and down the hatch.
Well done Doug.

Thanks Janet! Fine one.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Great image! And a very tempting invite! But all good things have their down side. Hope the hangover isn't too bad! Nicely done! Good luck! Take care, Debbie

I thirst for victory, but nay, it was not quenched!
Comment from Pearl Edwards
This is a very clever 1.6.1 poem D and good rhyming with ale and ail. Most of us eventually realise we can't continue to party like old or the next day is certainly a fail. Loved it, and good luck in the contest.

Comment from karenina
Cheers! (Well, that's what we hope for when toasting anyway)-- Nice use of homophones to tie this one together with a twinkle in your eye. I find these little count contests nearly impossible and appreciate the wit of anyone who can make it work, which you have done!

Alas, sweet Karenina, I have failed to quench my earthly desires for podium and did not taste sweet victory. Now?I am parched with the stale taste of defeat?.ha! On to the next one!

If at first you don't' succeed...
You're on FanStory and the votes sometimes go wonky!
Carry on!
A red ribbon awaits!

Probably lost the anti-homophone vote.

Hah! I was thinking of "punning" that...
I suppose there are antihomophones!
(At least you weren't CANCELLED!)

Hi Doug, You've met the 1-6-1 challenge quite nicely. This type of poetry can be difficult to execute, and you did well. I especially liked your creative word usage with ale/ail. Good rhyming. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck. Margaret

Alas, my thirst for podium was not quenched as I failed to drink from the cup of victory!
Comment from jessizero
I liked that you used "ale" and "ail." You did a good job with this poem. You got the syllable count right, and you rhymed all the lines. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

I love your poem. It is a very creative way to use the two ways of spelling the word ail or ale. As we age party times drift away. You found a fun way to express this fact. You topped your wonderful words with a great picture. Together they are awesome.

-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-You make a good point about partying,
as well as the two forms of ale that support it.
-Good luck in the contest.
