my daughter Rachael is often critical
concerning my hobby writing poetry
today I asked teenage Rachael
why I write time written poetry
and she does not write poetry
then answered my question
with an answer potential
'because I can and you cannot'
Rachael replied with a rapid reply
'because you will and I won't'
'the key to artistic ability productivity
is talent fused into intense desire to do'
