That's Just Me

Oh, you do not want to know my tale, But since you insist, I guess I'll just tell, Originally from mystical India -- not Rome! Some 30 years ago made the USA my home, I revere Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha, Krishna But keep my faith in love, peace and karma, I read Shakespeare, Longfellow, Poe, Keats, Omar Khayyam, Frost, Tennyson and Yeats, Besides poetry and movies, I love to love Books, traveling and fair ladies in drove, Sometimes I blow hot, sometimes cold And venture out to buy stuffs already sold, I am like Don Quixote, at times like Rip Van Winkle Sometimes Ebenezer Scrooge, at times Kris Kringle. Balding, with a paunch, but I think young There's not a passionate song I haven't sung, Pensive, moody and mostly quiet But when I talk, I usually am right, Couldn't walk good with my bad knees But I dance with butterflies and bees, Purblind, yet I have seen places umpteen I daydream a lot, you know what I mean? Born in June, by nature I am sunny And if I so wish, I can be quite funny, But you wouldn't want to mess with me I can be swift and lethal like Bruce Lee! I am writing this jestfully but it's serious, Ha now, don't go get nosy or too curious! "Bio of Poet" contest by Tammy Reams
