My Style
My Style
“Are you a poet?” they ask of me
I say “No, I’m a writer of rhyme,
Poets are weavers of magical dreams
Much better than efforts of mine
I write of everyday, normal things
That the average man would know
Poets write erudite, complex verse
That would baffle the ordinary Joe.
But each to their own, and each must do
Whatever it is floats their boat’
I’ll keep on writing my everyday verse
Aimed at the normal bloke.
But I still read the classical writers
Wondering if I could write as they do
But I feel more at home with less Drama
And it’s better I keep it true.
