If Poetry Were a Woman

If Poetry were a woman 
I'll do everything to be her man
I'll pick up my quill 
And write for her my whole will

If Poetry were a woman
Would you like to know my plan?
Surely she'll be the toast of the town
Whom I'll happily follow downtown

If Poetry were a woman
She'll be prettier than any female human
Absent questions, I'll dutifully pay her bills
That I may sleep in the valley between her hills

If Poetry were a woman
Despite everyone would like to be her fan
She'll be the valley of many kings and men
Especially those who aren't in her ken

If Poetry were a woman
Would you make her your fan
Follow her about town
From sunrise to sundown?
