Who

When I as young Only a teen I started to read Some of poetry Most I found I did not like Many poets And did I read Finding few Who spoke to me But I found one I really liked And I saw him Everywhere He wrote poems He wrote songs He wrote books Oh so many Oh he did Speak to me Yet when I look On poet lists He name is never There to see He sold millions And won awards But some how He is not to be found Looking for poets Who were good There are lists Where he won’t be found As I look for The poets of today And his name You will not find Some how he is not Someone to be named

I am thinking of my two personal favorites - Dr. Seuss and Shel Silverstein. They should be on everyone's favorite list!
