Unfortunately I’m unable to
accept your rejection.
So many come in, it is
possible to accept only a few.
Due to staff limitations
no specific comment
can be made on yours.
Be assured it received
a careful reading.
I do hope you find a home
for this rejection.
Remember rejections are my
foundation and lifeblood.
Always feel free to send more.

I love it!! I understand completely. I could wall-paper my house with the rejection letters I have gotten over the years. I love how you turned it around and still made it amusing.
On a positive note, don’t give up. I am 56 and finally found a publisher that loves my work so much they can’t get enough of my work fast enough. I never thought it would happen, but it did, so as my favorite professor repeated many times, “A writer writes”.
