Someone hired me to write a poem for a vacation contest.

If you’re having a contest of any kind and would like a poem written for it, please let me know.

Vacation Contest
by Jonathan Kraft

Imagine you and you’re on vacation
You are relaxed and you’re having fun
your stress is gone, you feel amazing,
all because of the contest you won!

On this vacation you’ve renewed your mind,
your body, and even (it seems) your soul.
You feel completely connected, and at peace.
Your life feels once again whole

Returning to your other (daily) life
you know that you’ll be even much more prepared,
because of the time you’ve spent on vacation.
The peace that you’ve found in this place will be shared

with the people you’re returning to back at home.
Yes, they will see you on top of your game
You’ll be effective in all activities
People will see that you’re not the same.

You won the prize for the dream vacation.
Your costs were none to get here today.
All you did was fill a form to win,
and you got more entries (by the way)

when you then shared a message with your friends
telling them about the newsletter.
You told them about the books on page 4
and how those would make their lives better.

And so you’ve now been whisked away
to your ideal dream destination,
amazed the joy and contentment you’ve found
at your most ideal location.
