National Writing Day 2017
‘We wanted to tweet something,
But it’s taking much more time.
Because it’s #NationalWritingDay,
We thought it ought to rhyme.
On this very special day,
We’re urging you to read.
To soak up all that knowledge
As you flick between the leaves
Of impressive books, well-travelled
Across continents and seas
Just so those like you and I,
Have the privilege to read.
Now reading’s not for everyone,
But writing’s really fun.
You can do that anywhere –
Sat outside in the sun.
Write until your wrist is sore
Write until you scream.
Write what makes you happy,
As crazy as that seems.
Write yourself to ANYWHERE
The limit ends with dreams
We mean you CAN do anything –
(But only we should clean).
