If Shakespeare Was a Souper

Each morn when the alarm says it's time to get up To my Mac I rush before I go pee To see who's commented on my silliness poems It's a good thing this option is free Pretty damn sure paying a few extra bucks Comments would be fairly rare Let's all be realistic, my very good friends Paying would make us not care If Shakespeare was a Souper like all of us guys Everyone would surely pay big bucks To observe a great master's mind at work And how our puny efforts do suck So we'll have to make do without the “Bard of Avon” Really happy to fill in for this guy That must've sounded just a bit egotistical Disrespect I didn't mean to imply © Jack Ellison 2015

Great one, Jack! Love myself some Shakespeare..I've learned so much from his eloquent verses.."Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind." - one of my favorite quotes! Always enjoying your mind! Always, Laura

If Shakespeare was a souper...could any of us feel comfortable, putting up our poetry on the soup, alongside of his? Love Shakespeare.

I would simply die to meet Shakespeare... Unfortunately, that's exzactly what I would have to do... Oh well... It takes a master to truely explain all of what he is saying in every line... Of which I am not... Sadly. Love him any way! And you, too.
