The Rhymers Keep Rhyming

The rhymers keep rhyming through decades of time
And only in death do they run out of rhyme
Their best physical years in the forever gone
But the rhymers in old age do keep rhyming on
To most twenty first century literary critics a rhymer is a non poet
Not one who is worthy of any literary note
But those considered rhymers nowadays were considered to be poets of the past
Suppose few things in time ever does seem to last
Though they will never know of literary renown
There are rhymers in every village and city and town
Who carry on rhyming for love of it and not for pay
Though not seen to be fashionable in the literary World of today
Though as writers few of them ever make the grade
They too are a part of the great wordsmith trade.
