To Store Sped Then Went To Bed
Stay and Pray Would Say No Way
When I would read what he had said
Poetry writing should be done by Fred;
To buy supplies in store he had sped,
Then stopped writing and went to bed.
When he would awake the next day
What we had heard to our dismay;
At church stopped to stay and pray.
Go again would always say no way
When instead you should rather write
Quaint things that are always trite
What happened much to my surprise
He had been awarded a Pulitzer Price.
