My favorite writer is well-known and most profound,
A master wordsmith and writer of great renown,
I have searched far and wide for this bard so profuse,
Just refers to himself by the name, Anonymous.

Of antiquity, a distinguished writer of great worth,
One of the best to ever live upon this earth,
No picture of this person has never been found,
Just a remarkable figure who was never crowned.

How can such a library of this value be bound,
And logged into history without cosmic sound,
From whence  arose this mastermind of prose and rhyme,
Seemingly without equal, this unique of a kind.

What connotation and thought this author left behind,
To educate and entertain, it boggles the mind,
Most writers want fame and means from the populace,
But not the writer known only as Anonymous.
