unto the Earth
twas born a poet of note
his portrayal
of the human condition
tis so exacting and precise
his insightful pedigree
is on display
in each of his poems
we're e'er astounded
at the sagacity
within his bones
this day he scribes
a verse most exemplary
for all of us to view
his name shall go down
in the annals
of literature
he'll be in the company
of Shakespeare Shelley and Keats
in the coming centuries
humanity shall hail his brilliance
they'll be in awe
of this remarkable
poet
