This Is A Poem

This Is A Poem

 

This is a poem

Based on the want

Of it being one

So I nay will promise you

That it will goodly be

Just that it will

 

Not so much forced

But willed because

I am that as good

As to form a thing

Of this nature

Into being

 

And if that strikes you

Like arrogance

I will simply say

You are wrong

 

For I am as good

As that

Where poetry

Is concerned

 

With but a single word

At random choice

Given time enough

If even minutes short

I can quickly write

A goodly work

 

Nay not always so

Some words stymie me

But more so yes

Than no indeed

 

This is a poem

Based on the want

Of it being one

And here and now

I'll loudly proclaim

This want is good

And I rightly willed

This very such

Into being

For any who

Should care to read of it

 

Charles Petrie

 

On the whole...I like it...save the ending, that's not my best ending. But, here, in the wastelands, the desert of my bloggings...it will do nicely.

Despite that truth...I'll be back tomorrow and he day after that, and so on and so on...well, you get the point.

Tomorrow.
