MY POEMS

MY POEMS

If a poem could cost a dime

I would spend my ink and time

Making the perfect rhyme

Many people would read it

Even if I have to sell it on credit

I will be a businessman with wit

Sit down- Think about it

A penny for the perfect sentence

A penny for a poem glaring with essence

A penny for writing about the present and past tense

A penny for describing a situation that is intense

A penny if I write truthfully without pretense

As I turn away from crime

Making the perfect rhyme

If a poem could cost a pound

I would turn my life around

As I compose the perfect poetic sound

That rhymes against any background

My words will sublime 

Not just the perfect rhyme

They will be read both at tea time and bedtime

My sentences will mature in their prime with time

As I turn away from crime

Making the perfect rhyme
