If I live long enough, my goal
Is to be the Doyen of Hello Poetry.
Not because I'm the best, though
I strive to earn that sobriquet too.
Not because I'm wise - Oh no-
Wise-guy is more like it;
But because I never ran away
Without a word
As so many others  have done.

Another in the ongoing challenge from BLT to use the Merriam Webster word of the day in a poem - or in MY case, a half-assed attempt at it. The word-of-the-day is online daily.
