Mike Dailey Poet Rhyme

Published

I know a lot of you have been there so you know how I feel
A wee bit apprehensive and even more surreal
Will anybody ever read it, is it worth then being read
Will it be like other art works, worth more when I am dead
Will my grandkids and their grandkids keep a copy on a shelf
Will it give someone the courage to write a book themselve
Will it be my only published work though I write down all my thoughts
Will it be the kind of book you’d read or better yet, you’ve bought

Carolyn Devonshire April 24, 2012 at 10:05 AM Mike, we all have similar feelings about getting our work published. There is happiness, but also some apprehension. I'm sure your grandchildren will keep your book and read to their own children from it. Very nicely written! Love, Carolyn
