Rejection Reflection

11 April 2013

I didn't know the judge's predilection

About choosing from my collection

So after some introspection

I made a tough selection

Hoping for a connection

That would pass inspection.

After viewing the winners' section

My emotions went another direction.

It felt like a hit to the midsection

And I hid under the covers for protection.

Antiques Roadshow is coming to San Diego. We didn't get tickets from their email address lottery, but we have friends will connections. Shhhh, don't tell.

Bruce gets to go

To Antiques Roadshow.

Among the watch czars

He collects Pulsars.

The watches most prized

Are the ones Grima sized.

A pair of watch mates

Looks like pyramids of thin plates.

Another pair of silver and gold

Ingot-shaped pocket watches got sold.

The bark-textured watch of heft

He hopes won’t be subject to theft.

Bruce really wants to get on tape

The matched set called moonscape.

He knows a lot, but has a dearth

Of knowledge about their worth.

Yes, Bruce is excited to go

And be on Antiques Roadshow.
