Poem
Each I Have I Each Check out that for forwards and backwards Was weirdest Game of I ever had heard What if I were to come up with a word That use of poor language could cure What once was so simple, plain and pure. Exactly what was it word may have meant That is known by a human who is intelligent Enough to be able to turn pages of a book Read down to last word after taking a look. For how much longer will you have waited Until you discover words were consolidated As you read more and more started to see Word you were reading was long as can be. Already knowing you were a wise old owl Saw that word was comprised of one vowel And even though you still were all knowing Anywhere at all you seemed to be not going. Then again you would thoroughly try and try Finally did discover word and vowel were "I" After looking at all of the "I's" in a long list What you discovered was you were an egotist. Both a word and vowel were in your vocabulary Like things of all certainly seeming so scary If an entire page of "I's" you were to mention You not I would be center of everyone's attention. James Thomas Horn Retired Veteran and Poet
