Poem Title:
Poem
May I introduce myself, but I’m not sure how, My given name was different to what it is now. Amanda Michelle, they named me back then, But nobody told me until I was ten. I’m now known as Mandy for good and for bad, Life has been hard but please don’t be sad. I also have a title which some may not know I am Lady Amanda and I have the certificate to show. My husband and I are happy as can be, Our two grown up sons, they look just like me. I have little experience in this writing game So cannot regale you with previous fame. My story is true but with added laughs With fact and with fiction and even a few gaffs. Appreciate it, I would, If you could peruse at your leisure My little attempt to spread round some pleasure. My story I think, could stand with the rest It may not be genius or even the best But my story is here and needs to be read Or I’ve wasted my nights when I should be in bed Thank you so much for taking time to read, My introduction to you, which is what you need. I have nothing to say on education and passes I have none to boast of even though I wear glasses. I can plant you a garden or paint you a plate, I can build you a wall or bake you a cake. I can sew you a garment, or tile you a wall But ask for qualifications, I took none at all. Life is my tutor and I have learned well, Lessons were hard but we don’t need to dwell. Please give me a chance and look at my work That’s all I can ask, so I don't feel a jerk. Lady Amanda is now writing a book Thats all I can say except please wish me good luck. © 25/05/2012
