On National Poetry Day
I hope to be able
to read my best…
poem;
better than the rest…
poem;
that I wrote a while ago.
It needs a bit of work,
which I shall not shirk.
I know, that it will be difficult –
if not impossible –
to better the best;
but, I do believe
that the best can be bested;
at the least, I shall be tested – maybe arrested – probably not –
then, if I do get my my muse truly interested,
I can be sure that the time invested
in decomposing
then recomposing my rhyme
will be worth the effort.
But, you know me…
