My Own Little Stories

 I do write a lot but i do not write well

But i have my own little stories to tell

Of people i know of and sometimes do meet

A rhymer like i am on every street

I used to daydream that i might become a poet

And be looked on by the literary critics as one worthy of note

But most amateur writers the critics ignore

For every well known writer a thousand unknown or more

I am just one of those who loves penning rhyme

It is something i have been doing since my physical prime

There are many people like me in every village and city and town

Who will die as they live as strangers to literary renown

And though my better years in the forever gone

For as long as i can do i will keep rhymimg on.
