A Serious Poem
Okay, It's time to write a serious poem
Enough of that funny stuff
I can write one without the humor
It's doesn't look that tough
Let me see now, where do I begin?
The rain in spain falls mainly in the plain
Ok, this may be harder than I thought
And it could even be somewhat a pain
I know I can do it though, wait and see
This poem's not finished yet
I mean, it's only just words right?
How much harder can it get
Okay, now I think I got it
Just wait til you see my next line
It's coming don't get impatient
You just gotta give me some time
Alright now, I think I'm ready
Maybe a poem about romance
To be or not to be, no that's not it
Wait!, don't leave, give me another chance
Maybe I'll write about heartbreak
"Frankly Scarlett, I don't give a damn"
Alright, I give up, I would love to write this stuff
But I guess I never can
I guess my life's been chosen for me
I'm just on a different path
You can write the serious stuff
And I'll just make people laugh
