A Shakespeare I'Ll Never Be!

Well, Sir Ralph: You've challenged me to my very first taggin' game! I doubt very much that this verse will win a Pulitzer Prize er bring me fame, But, hopefully, it might light in the soul uv a strugglin' poet a sizzlin' flame, That will to a buddin' bard, shower glory and honor on his/her name! Alas, my forte seems to be writin' stuff with rhythm and rhyme. I've tried other forms, but they ain't turned out to be worth a dime. Tho' a Shakespeare, Longfellow, Kilmer or Poe I'll never be, I'll jes' keep on writin' frum the soul, lettin' my quill flow free! Well, Sir Ralph: You say you ain't a poet but I happen to disagree. If I could compose half as well as you I'd consider myself in great company! I had better bring a close to this vacuous and nonsensical verse. I fear that if I keep on babblin', it could grow to become much "vorse!" Robert L.
