26 - ZEAL

[The twenty-sixth and final entry of April 2016's A-to-Z Blogging Challenge.]

*


Oh, my word, it's finally done
What an eventful, blogging-filled month!
Filled with letters from A to Z
Here's how this journey has treated me!

First I felt anxious to start this game
I tried to prepare for the days that came
But then my posts started to be boring
Sigh, I wish I could just goreng :(

Chewing on potential posts every day
I even dared to write things I don't usually say
Excellence was something I tried to pursue
And I hope I didn't force anything on you

The challenge was really going great
Had all these rhymes popping into my head
Ideas were forming and just pouring out
Joy, kindness, laughter my posts talked about

Mornings were spent trying to stay ahead
Nights I wrote for tomorrow; I couldn't wait
Opening tabs to find suitable pics
From pexels.com, lovely stock photo picks!

Quitting this challenge was a temptation
Running away and seeking vacation
Truth be told, I was getting uninspired
Vetoing my own thoughts, becoming tired

Wisdom and knowledge were gained in this season
'Twas like using an x-ray to find a reason
For my love for writing and why it kept you engrossed
Zeal was what I had; thanks for reading my posts!

To all those who have been keeping up with my (almost) daily posts and encouraged me, I'd like to sincerely thank you for supporting me in my writing. It really was not easy trying to keep up with churning out a (hopefully) interesting topic and create (hopefully) legit rhymes about said topic. It almost felt as if I was half-dead in a marathon, gasping for air, yearning for energy as I reached the last few letters. Anyhow, it has been really fun to keep my blog so fresh like this, and I'm really not sure when I'll ever blog again! Maybe I'll stay away from this for the next year or so. (Jokes!)

Again, thank you for reading, and I hope you've enjoyed it. 

The #AtoZChallenge 2016 has been officially completed!
