Of Rhyme Poem by Francis Duggan

This penning of rhyme can be a hungry belly game
For most in it no money as well as no fame
At penning of rhyme most rhymers for themselves never make a name
Though it is something they do enjoy doing just the same
Not a career parents would choose for their child writing of rhyme
As most people do see it as a waste of time
Though to do it you do not need a uni degree
And it even does come easy to one like me
And though of the praises of rhymers you will not hear many sing
For the rhymers the penning of rhyme can be an enjoyable thing
The writing of rhyme is not a good launching pad to wealth and renown
Though there are many rhymers in every village and city and town
And as is said rhymers are many and poets are few
Though to this one might say do tell us what is new.
