A Critic

 He said why do you persist in penning of bad rhyme
You have written so much doggerel over decades of time
A literary fringe dweller without the rewards of pay
Online you add to your numbers of rhymes every day
You are one unworthy of literary note
Yet to penning of rhyme so much of your time you devote
So many like you in every village and city and town
Who write reams of stuff yet will never know of literary renown
That his words had truth in them i could not deny
But to his criticism i did verbally reply
I said i loved reading rhymes when i was a boy
And writing them nowadays i thoroughly enjoy
And my addiction to rhyming i could not give away
I hope to be doing it on my life's final day.
