Doctor Ram's Words Are Better Than Gold

A poet cannot always be understood,
but those that can reach us are better than good.
There’s one at the Soup for both young and old.
Dr. Ram’s words are better than gold.

One poet I like who writes in this way
is very unique, and that’s why I say
when God made this man, he sure broke the mold!
Dr. Ram’s words are better than gold.

So whether in rhyme, in free verse or haiku;
in senryu, sijo, or in dodoitsu,
the good doctor rocks it, and so you’ve been told!
Dr. Ram’s words are better  than gold.

A nice tribute to our Dr. Ram with this write. Tried to answer your blog and when I sent it -it came up blank. Don't know what happened. Funny I had a phone call from an unknown number yesterday wanting me to go on he computer and fix it. YES A SCAM is what it is. He was very insistent. I told him I did not need his help but I felt like calling him a scum bag.

Yes - it is good that Dr. Ram is on this site! Nice poem! I hope you are O.K. I recently sent for a sample copy of "Spitball" - a magazine devoted to poems and stories about baseball. I may try to write for it. Peace and Love Matthew Anish
