For years and years, <br />I wanted to be published. <br />To actually see my name in print <br />to be able to hold a book up <br />and say that it is all my own work. <br />However, not once did I think <br />of the problems that might bring. <br />I never though of the sore hands <br />and blistering knees <br />I would get from autographing <br />the books for all my friends. <br />It is not a choice I don’t relish <br />as I do it with heartfelt ease. <br />It is just that I am so tall <br />and to sign a book <br />I have to get on my hands and knees. <br />Now my hands are full of calluses <br />and my knees full of blisters. <br />What more can I say, <br />except thank you <br />for listening to me today. <br /> <br />10 May 2008<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/autographing-fun-poem-78/
