True To My Calling

Do not care if mine is not a widely known name

Or if i am a stranger to any sort of literary fame

Any hope of literary success years ago from me did fade

Still every writer is needed in the wordsmith trade

It was my love of rhyme made a rhymer of me

And a rhymer is all that i do wish to be

For many years i have been a rhyming buff

And all i wish is for to write readable rhyming stuff

I used to love reading rhymes when i was a boy

And writing them nowadays i thoroughly enjoy

One who is not worthy of the title of poet

I feel no desire for any literary note

My best days in life in the forever gone

But true to my calling i keep rhyming on.
