Introduction To My Poetry

MANY A POEM SHALL I LAY TO REST IN THIS GOLDEN PAGES, HEAVEN'S CREST T'WARDS ADVENTURES IN MY FAILING YEARS; VALLEYS I ROAMED WITHOUT MORTAL FEARS AND DESERTS I FAINTED THRU', A PEST TO MY HEALTH, MELANCHOLY'S TERROR- BUT AS I ROAMED, WAS I IN ERROR? SEEKING ANSWERS FOR MY BLEEDING HEART? LO! A PITY AND THE SPOILS ARE HARD: MY ADVENTURE MET MA'Y FELLOW WHO BEGGED ME TO RETURN HOME AND PRAY- OH CHRIST! I REFUSED AND HERE I LAY UNDER SUN BEAM OF THE DESERT CLAD, HEART FAILING,POEMING FOR EVERY LAD-
