Jones Very

Jones Very was born in Salem Massachusetts in his younger years he became a clergyman
Early in his life he developed a mental illness which remained with him for his sixty six years life span
In his lifetime he wrote many famous lyrical and religious sonnets many of them known and read today
A talented and renowned poet despite his mental crosses with words he was one who did have a way

In his latter years he became reclusive he was not one who liked to socialize
Perhaps the side effects of his mental illness in the human mind one problem to another does give rise
A great mind as is known from human history of a happy life is never a guarantee
And so it was with the gifted poet Jones Very the gloom of unhappiness became his reality

Jones Very was born in the year of eighteen thirteen in his lifetime he was known far and wide
His was a great mind that goes without question and great minds of greatness cannot be denied
But sad for him in life he was not happy as he aged his state of mind did deteriorate
Fame is of little use to one who is unhappy as so it was for this poetic great

Jones Very was a very famous poet his lyrical religious poems have withstood the test of time
He was amongst the great poets of the World when rhyming poetry was in it's glorious prime
But sad for him in life he was not happy he had his mental crosses for to bear
But he did leave his mark in human history and the Jones Very of the Human World seem rare.
