Making It To The "Top Ten"

by Joan Serratelli

It was great!
It was grand!
When I logged on
I saw it and
I was amazed!

I finally made it
to the "Top Ten"
I was so happy
I almost danced!

But then I went up
to number 9!
I was even happier
I almost cried

When I made it
all the way up
to number 3
I figured someone
was kidding me!

It's number 2
NO WAY!
That is all
I have to say

I wanted to throw
a party- just for me
In wanted people
to tell me
how wonderful I was

But then I went
back down to 10
I knew it wouldn't last
PLEASE SOMEONE...GET ME A PRINTER FAST!
This cannot last....

"What goes up;
must come down"...
and it will
all in good time

...and it did
and guess what
happened next?
I lived!

It is a nice feeling, isn't it?

*smiles* it does make one's blood flow a little faster, not?
