I Will Keep Penning On

I have been writing stuff now for more than a while
And this one more doggerel penned in sonnet style
The rhymes that come to me on paper i pen down
Though i'll never know the status of literary renown
For many years i have been a rhyming buff
And through three decades and eight years i have penned reams of stuff
I've been advised by some to give rhyming away
But any heed to such advice i never do pay
Anything one enjoys doing is not a waste of time
And i'm always happy when i'm penning rhyme
Their opinions are their business and that suits me fine
And what is their business is no business of mine
And though my best days in life to the forever gone
Despite what some do say i will keep penning on.
