Perfect Excuse

Today I won’t be posting a tale funny nor sad.
But though I’m busy packing, it’s really not my bad.
I got up extra early to see my daily topic
and when I couldn’t see it, I feared I’d gone myopic.

Yes, I refreshed my browser and took a look again.
10:30 and still not a prompt. It really is a sin.
I think there’ll be no prompt today. The prompt guy has gone fishin’.
His sin is not so huge,  but only a sin of omission.

I’ve got to hit the road right now, and leave this lovely place.
I’m sweaty from the packing and fear I’m red of face.
It’s not ’cause I’m embarrassed nor ’cause I am unfit.
Let’s blame it all on WordPress. I think they’re used to it.

(Update: Ah, the Daily Prompt is finally available.)
