Endless Struggle

A lame duck in life 
 Left with only his rhymes 
Persistent and subtle 
Left to wither in time 
In life left with no rebuttle 
Only his inferior rhymes 
Life do me no favors taking time 
My hopless persistence in a worthless rhyme

Good evening Harry! A wonderful verse that walks through areas where many and most of us have travelled. I've felt this: "hopeless persistence in a worthless rhyme", but if writing is what you truly enjoy, it will come along and sweep you off your feet! Believe in yourself, for this piece speaks softly, though its voice is loud! Best to you and yours..Mikki

Wrong again, no one who comes as an apostle of the word is ever worthless ... go on and complete the grans mission, let your imagination feed the world with its love. Peace and happiness
