I'm a Humble Poem

I sit high on your bookshelf, 
but you can't say I speak for myself. 
I'm so bashful and so humble,
all I ever do is mumble.
Other poems reach for the sky.
I look at the ground and sigh, 
forever alone, unread and lost
between E. A. Poe and Robert Frost.

Very clever, David. I like your wit and this “humble” poem, as well!
