Just One Of Those

Since for doing it i never receive any pay
I only write rhymes for enjoyment in truth i can say
A hobby i hope to never give away
That i will be doing on my life's final day

It was my love of rhyme made a rhymer of me
When i was twenty seven in nineteen seventy three
Going back the years five with four decades ago
And since time that ages has become my foe

Long before i reached my physical prime
Rhyme was quite popular this is going back in time
But rhymers not considered as poets by the literary critics of today
With time too comes change it is always this way

I used to love reading rhymes as a schoolboy
And writing them nowadays i thoroughly enjoy
Rhyme is a thing anybody can write
And easy to read, memorize and recite

I love writing rhyme and i do not pretend
That i hope to be doing it until my life's journey end
For many years i have been a rhyming buff
Just one of those who has penned pages of stuff.
