Each One Can Afford
What was best thousandth poem you have wrote?
To answer this question much time did devote
Found that fewer than forty accomplished this task
Who now are sitting in sun and always like to bask.
So to encourage you, what should be done and I do
Making you full of much fame and one of the few
Who have ever accomplished such a great goal
And effort writing each poem hasn't taken its toll.
My total towards one thousand started to climb
And I know how it will take a little more time
Before I am successfully in middle of pack
And Soup will start cutting me a lot of slack.
Before my long life eventually is extinguished
Hope you discover my poems are distinguished
And by then you no longer will be quite bored
They are all for free and anyone can afford.
