To Heaven With Me

To Heaven With Me

With my poems will set entire world on fire
Which is my destined desire that will not expire
Even though in some straights now so dire
Or geared up gas prices go higher and higher.

After gathering in one more mere glance
Was wondering if there could be a chance
Even though horrible when I do dance
My love will leave her in a terrible trance.

Not fearing all of the things I have done
Poems are popular and people won't shun;
Poet Laureate will probably be the one
Whose title and dastardly deed fell upon.

Poets have become of an epic proportion
Distinctively not result of any distortion
Poems were best ones there could ever be;
Out of jealousy took them to heaven with me.

Dear James: Good read, good write! Thank you for your Soup mail. Please look for my poems marked "Alliteration" to get an idea of what I mean about the same sounds throughout each line. All the best then, Leon.

Oh. Alliteration is the style of alteration you made to the world of poetry to agree with your poetic style. Someone called me an artistic poet, whatever that means. How did you start into the world of poetry anyway? Enriching Your Poems with Enriquez. Love it. Jim Horn
