Early Morning Celebration

Here in early morning isolation
At my keyboard's beck and call
Perch I. Waiting for inspiration
Perchance to wander up the hall
Yonder. I must write some verse!

The theme is hanging in the air
Excitedly asking to be given
New life. Member, can you spare
Time to submit an acrostic poem
Herein? It is our tenth birthday!

Balloons pop out into the net
In celebration of this anniversary
Remembrance! Ten years, yet
The dancing flame still burns clearly
Here at WDC. The decade past
Dwells in our hearts with sadness
Alloyed with joy. Time goes so fast...
Years of memory our minds caress.

Writing down our dreams and fears
Dispels the loneliness of the years
Course. So thanks WDC! Three cheers!
