A poet not

A poet not

 

Perhaps someday I’ll write a rhyme

If so inclined and have the time

 

A play on words, a touch of wit

Tis true, I have some nack for it

 

Of pace and meter, twisted words

Passion, feelings, things I’ve heard

 

But not just now, my soul is old

My mind is numb , my muse too cold

 

My thoughts are shallow, as a pond

While poets need, an ocean strong

 

And so for now I’ll meditate

On poems of friends, I know are great

 

Just a rhymer - Justa Civileon 2003
