The hubpages contest is in full swing, and some of the authors are really pushing themselves to the limit and impressively are writing 10 hubs a day.

This poem is dedicated to those dedicated hub authors who each deserve the prize.

I have not been so dedicated, being from the UK therefore being ineligible to win the $5000.00 worth of prizes, although I have taken part with an average 2 hubs a day.

It is still a fun contest that has the hubpages community working together in harmony, taking part and from what I have seen so far having fun in the process.

THANKYOU HUB-MASTERS for this contest, it has brought a little excitement to our lives.

Write for me robots, 10 stories every day

I will pick the topic, do it you must obey

Love health and money it gets harder every day

For 30 days and 30 nights we write our lives away.

The hub-master has spoken; the prize is up for grabs

300 hubs in 30 days we must be bloody mad

The coffee pot's on overtime, our cup is always full

3000 words a day was easier when we were at school.

We sit here at our computers, staring blankly at the screen

Nothing in our heads bar the 5000.00 Dollar dream

Our eyes are glazing over our skin is sallow and pale

But those hubs we have to write, it's not in us to fail

Every day at noon, we gather in a pack

To find the hub-masters clue and we really must be quick

Mc7 is a master and in all but very few

Gets the word and gains the point, before we've read the clue

10 days of hublove have passed, and with 20 left to go

Who will last the pace, I really do not know

But every day we will be here through rain or hail or shine

Writing hubs and gaining points and that prize will soon be mine.

The contest is exciting, and points are hard to find

We write all day, we write all night, we are training up our mind

Our brains have turned to jelly, our eyes fixed in a stare

When we cant find the words we're pulling out our hair

Don't worry though my friends it will all be over soon

If it went on much longer we would be howling at the moon

Jimmy, I love it--and it is so true...my skin sallow, my eyes are glazed, my coffee pot is working overtime. An ad is blocking off the end of your first stanza--so, I missed those words.
