I'm not sure what the contest "rules" are (if any), but here's my shot at it:

A meteor fell in Lost City
T'was no one around, such a pity
Except for a dog
Who thought?it?a log
And peed on the rock, oh how witty!
??
???????? **OR**

There was an old lady from 'Bama
Who was hit by a rock whilst in jamas
The rock left a bruise
It made all the news
The rock is now known as a Hammer

???????? **OR**

I hunt for meteorites from afar
But don't try to track me by car
The site's undisclosed
So stick that up your nose
And go hunting instead in Dhofar

Hey Pekka,

Pit?k?? hauskaa!
Let's have some fun and let's have a little contest.
I throw in a Lunar box size S as prize.

Here my 2nd try...


There once was a fall ?Buzzard Cooley?
They promised export permits duly.
We waited a year
And start now to fear
That maybe they spoke not so truly?? ? :-?

Have always admired your english, which is better than with many
natives ;-)

In english poetry you can find texts, which are understable only for
the native lanquage researchers, so your poem is just perfect.

take care,
