It Is Hard To Write Anything Good Poem by Francis Duggan

It is hard to write anything good not even good rhyme
Something that would live over decades of time
And though writers are many good writers are few
In this i am not saying anything that is new
Some say good writers are born this way and cannot be made
Though every writer is needed in the great wordsmith trade
In writing like all things in life for one to win others must lose
Though losing is a thing anyone does not choose
Among writers a few have known of wealth and fame
But not everyone does become a great name
Many dream of becoming great writers but few their dreams do realize
But this in itself is not any surprise
And though only a minority of making a living from writing ever seem to succeed
Of every writer the wordsmith trade is in need.
