Shirley Sibley Poet Rhyme

‘uneducated Poet'

I’m an ‘uneducated poet’  
I wish I could go back in time
Big words and their meanings, I’d know it
Although I’m well versed in rhyme

Quite simply, the poems that I pen
Composed for the ‘uneducated’ man
I guess not up to the trend
Too easy to understand

So my hat’s off to judges and bards
Who understand what’s ‘written’ or ‘read’
but ‘uneducated’ me finds it hard
to decipher all that was said

Though I may not win any contests
I’ve read winners from finish to start
‘Learned’ poets and ‘unlearned’ at best
What’s written is penned from the heart
