VANISHING POST

Is there something about mid-February...

Some mysterious shut-down day -

That sees a poem disappear

From the WOL light of day?

 

Is there something about mid-February

Like a black hole beyond the sun,

While poems that come afterwards,

Are shining "two for one"?

 

Some poems are worth reading twice

Like a letter in the post,

But here is this month's mystery -

What date makes a poem a ghost?

There it was, gone! I appear to have been in the same boat.
The trials and tribulations
Of high tec I.C.T.
A puzzle wrapped in an enigma -
It's all a mystery to me.

I kick myself when I post something the last day of the month; only to see it vanish into the ether the following day!

Only read it once and liked it. Then your phantom verse drifted to the great grave of wordage hidden in the cosmos, somewhere beyond the last day of the month me thinks! ta muchly, nick.
