I need people to like me more, At this point I need 12 people to like me to get me to 25 so I can have a vanity address to get here, but I would like more, so I can really spread the uke love
Here is what I am going to do. I have 3 ukes to give away.
A lanikai Banjo resonator, and 2 Tall grass ukes.
Write a ukulele poem and post it on the Ukeeku.com Facebook page. I will give the ukes away by random draw.

Very tempting, but alas I try dodge Facebook. We’ll see if this contest can change my mind on that place.
I am in!
Your trying to hard to find some love on that site!! =D just be content in what you have and the rest will follow
I got this cool friend named Tim,
He’s awesome and quite full of Win,
Ukeeku dot com
Is the site that he’s on
Would a banjo for me be a sin?
Four strings and a vibe
Music makes people connect
Three cheers for the uke
I strum four strings simultaneously
Patina stains the goat skin head
The crowd applauds and is pleased
This life couldn’t be easier
To Uke or not to Uke
Not even a question
To string it along
and sing not the song
Would leave us no laurels to rest on
I already liked ya. so not much more I can do on that front., I did wear your shirt to the pool hall tonight. Got beat up 5 times.. Won’t do that again. 😉
I really want a tall grass uke
Want so much it makes me puke.
Bamboo is hot
Bamboo ukes, not
Makes me wonder, what, what what?
The fretboard is of rosewood,
I’d take it if I could.
With saddle high,
And tank-like build,
I think it’s really good.
The tallgrass is a winner uke
And Uke-eku’s no sinner
Although he made a simple wish.
That bamboo wood was thinner.
So, maybe then, a reso uke
With banjo-sound a-ringing.
Would make a sound that’s loud enough
So all can hear my swinging.
Uke-eku has final thoughts
About this La-ni-kai
He thinks it is beauteous
But the weight’s too high.
In summ’ry then
Here’s what I say
Please send uke
Without delay.
I’m lousy at poetry, but I’ll like you on Facebook anyway! (When I get home, that is. Facebook is blocked on our office system.)
There once was a comet called Hailey
which travelled through outer space daily.
Between planets it’s cold,
so when asked, Hailey told,
“I wish that I had a ukulele.”

Way to get the uke-poetry flowing, TIm. Great stuff, everyone!!
Hey George, teach me to play,
So I might be as good as you one day,
Strum away and I’ll watch you play,
So I might be as good as you one day.
From a devoted George Formby Fan.
i wish i could write a poem
to win this uke
i wish i had some talent
to play like the duke
i wish i could win this competition
but that’s unlikely , beacuase this peom is puke
“Soprano, Concert, Tenor or Bari
Size and sound and Feel, they vary.
But the endearing offspring of the Portuguese Braguinha,
can bring out the joy that lies buried within ya”
