Hurry Not - Worry Not Poem by Joyce Hemsley

Most poets heed the status quo
Writing verse in tempo-slow.
They give their all, forever true
And words of love come shining through.

Take your time, enjoy your writing
We know - it can be quite inviting
To quicken up your usual pace,
There is no need for you to race.
Take your time, be in no hurry,
Although the readers are the jury.
They will study every case
Poems should be classed as ace.
Take your time, thinking clearly
We already know you speak sincerely!
Take care, each tiny error erase
This could be your saving grace.

Most poets heed the status quo
Writing verse in tempo-slow.
They give their all, forever true
And words of love come shining through.
