Dalton Ogletree Poet Rhyme

Man

4/8/17


Across the land
There was a man
Whose journey had just began
And due to a decision that was bad
He lost all that he ever had
While feeling his most prized plan
Slip through the palm of his hand
Faster than sand

He was briefly sad and mad
But then became glad
When he was able to understand
What was done wrong, and how he can
Reach the goal and help his clan

It wouldn't take a couple hundred grand
Or to be sponsored by a well known brand

Nearby a dam
His skills and knowledge started to expand

While starting to scan the entire span
Many insects scrammed

As well as a ram and a lamb
Above a stream filled with crab and clam


Far away parked in a lot was a sedan
And minivan

Nearby you could see an area full of water where many people swam
Whether they jumped in, walked or ran

Traffic jams
And braked being tapped or slammed


People only out to scam
With shams

Some content looking for gems and gold with or without a pan
And others only concerned with glam
Or famous people's and their own instagram
