A Bear Challenge

How can I resist when Big Bear Butt writes this on his blog?

Write a short story. I don’t care how short, or what kind of story, or even what form your story takes. BUT… your story, poem, dirty limerick or whatever you choose to do must incorporate within it in some way the following words:

A writing challenge!  So exciting!  So here is my creation!  LOL, what do you expect from me except a poem? :)  Predictable, I know!

Sifting through my blogroll for some juicy things to read
I notice Bear has challenged us, for all those in his feed
To write a post, a story or, perhaps a poem, or prose
And use the words he listed, which randomly he chose.

I wondered what to write about, perhaps I could complain
How slender Bloodelves always shine in mog contests, explain!
My tauren looks ridiculous in the those sexy Li'l Black Dresses
And plaits and braids are all I have for my horsemane-like tresses.

Or maybe I could write about how lucky I do feel
For everyone who bothers to read about the stuff I spiel
New friends I've made from blogging, they have all been oh so kind
The hidden ones who lurk are like treasures yet to find.

Maybe I should write about how I think a blog should be
That what you write's like a shaft of light, so a reader, they can see
Some titbit goss, a piece of news, or perhaps what you are doing
And write what you think YOU should write, not what gets you more page viewing.

So be a torch!  A beacon!  Share your thoughts with all of us
The more outrageous your thoughts are, I bet you'll really cause a fuss
Just look at Gnomey, loud and brash, brave a new frontier
O and Cider, go girl power, shake the blogosphere!

Community may be a word that's lost in LFR
But in the blogging world it's strong, come join and be a star
If what you write means something, be it topical or mundane
It's out there, so you never should feel like you've written it in vain.

Thanks for reading!  And to everyone who reads my blog, you guys were my inspiration :)
