Elusive Readers

Author's note: inspired by Doctor Seuss. I thought it was about time that I tried to write a more happy poem.

Also, I was thinking about adding more to this one. Should I?

Where are readers?

Here or there?

Guess what?

They're everywhere!

Do you find them in a book?

Draw them in with a hook?

Create a cover that will say

Read me through, all the way?

Do they stop by to kill time?

Do they stop to critique rhyme?

Did they decide to take a stroll?

Or do they simply just troll?

Are they behind electric screens?

Pretending to eat healthy greens?

Or are they other writers

Trying to rebuild their inner fires?

But, how do you find them?

Draw attention to your gem?

Even though you spread the word

You wonder if they even heard.

If nothing works show a friend

If not, then it's not the end

As a last resort, writers must wait

Readers now hold the writer's fate
