When I Found Myself on eBay

When I Found Myself on eBay

 

When by chance

I found myself on eBay ..

 

I realised

I might just have made it ..

 

But then,

was given up, or thrown away ..

      LoL oh never to be thrown away my dear Nev. I love your humour. 💜

      • Neville



        Bless you Teddy, I hope not but one neva knows .. Some of them really are more than a brand new copy .. 😎👍

        This reminds me of Willie Nelson waking up to find the news reporting him as dead. Yes indeed I don't think I would bring much of a price. Yea and i worry about that discarded pile, maybe to be sent back for a credit or refund. Fun read Neville

          Talk about discarded piles, I bought a very old Iranian rug for my study last week (well two actually) but one of them was the wrong one .. it turned out it was meant to be a much more expensive one .. now that's what I call magic .. Many thanks sorenbarrett 😎

          You've made it. As seen on ebay! 🙂 And I love the way your poems on here are laid out the same as in the book. Nicely done. Cheers, Tom.

                People sell on eBay for two reasons, either they need money or want money.
                Either way they must see your work as valuable.
                May their promotion be your profit.

                  thank you for the kind thought .. I hope you are right .. what an additional bonus it would be if they donated the money, if indeed they get any to the charities I sponsor .. cheers .. Neville

                  You have definitely made it as a writer. I should think it a good thing that you found yourself on ebay!!

                      I do tend to agree..... Amazon (damn 'em)are very swift, whereas with eBay it will depend on the dealer how quickly you managed to retrieve them copies............lol

                      • Neville



                        I'm not usually a lol kinda guy but you made me lol mate ..
