Note: 10 mins writing/typing/brainstorming time. 5 mins editing/refining time. Chose topic about 30 mins beforehand. Pretty quick poem, and probably pretty average too. Learnt something new today – it’s a dozen eggs, not a dozen of eggs. Good thing I checked that. Tasty eggs for breakfast – sunny side up for me. Yippee!
