Querying

A querying I will go
A querying I will go
Emailed my submission
A querying I will go.

It started off real slow
First page was years ago
It’s finally in completion
And polished with a glow.

Pages I had to type
Editing was the hype
My book is finally complete
My writing skills are ripe.

Some lines I had to wipe
I complained without a gripe
A rejection letter to delete
And an agent I will swipe.

Proposal written well
A story I have to tell
I’ll spread awareness
With words I often yell.

Querying can be hell
Making fingers swell
Guidelines are for fairness
An Agents calling bell.

Proofread once again
Spacing lines too thin
Hoping for a book show
A best seller for the win.

Attach files in trash bin
No writing with a pen
A querying I will go
Until an agent says I’m in.
