His legend in his words live on through the decades of time
John Masefield whose legacy lives in his beautiful rhyme
His long story poems have won him many a fan
In literature his name lives on as a memorable man
From Ledbury in England one who travelled far and wide
The title of poet of him cannot be denied
The Poet Laureate of England for many years
His poems of adventure and life's joys and tears
John Masefield was a sailor as a young man
And as a great writer lived out his life span
His Saltwater Ballads his ticket to fame
On his journey in life to a great literary name
John Masefield with rhyming words did love to play
During his lifetime one who did write every day
His praises his many fans do love to sing
To his readers Worldwide such joy his words do bring
John Masefield he was a famous English poet
And today his name lives on as one worthy of literary note
The last breath of life from his mortal body may have long gone
But in his legacy of words his fame does live on.
