I Like Poetry Much · 17 May 2025
I missed National Poetry Month, but that is okay
I will just write a short poem, and be on my way
For rhyming is something that I like to do
I hope as you read this, you like it too.
I was thinking about writing and such
When behold I remembered, I like Poetry much
And though I’ve not oft on my blog spun a rhyme
I thought that it might now be a good time.
For I have missed Poetry as part of my life
‘Though in times past, Poetry came only in strife
Yes, Poetry came when my heart did despair
Poetry came when I needed her there.
But now Poetry comes when I just want to rhyme
Poetry comes just any old time
I need not a muse nor a disaster in life
I need not have sadness nor experience strife
For Poetry returned. She probably never left
I am so glad that my soul’s not bereft
Of the rhyme and the meter of glad Poetry
I am relieved to know, Poetry never left me.
