Amongst writers a scarce one is the millionaire
And even those who make a living out of writing to say the least rare
The stuff I do pen with others I freely share
In that way I am one of a majority of such I am aware
For many years now I have been a rhyme buff
I am just one of those who enjoys penning stuff
An average rhymer and useless at prose
The wordsmith trade made of all kinds one suppose
My worth as a rhymer I never cease to doubt
Yet so many things for one to write about
The stuff I do pen few do read or recite
But I'm one of those people who just loves to write
The successful writers as always are few
You may add to that tell us something that's new.
Nice one Francis. I too prefer rhyming poetry - though I'll give anything a go at least once.
Very nice explanation of writing. so true also, very few make money on what they write. Loving to write I cannot stop, it matters not if every single person likes or loves what I write or not. It seems the people who were meant to read your work will find it life changing at times. That's what makes it all worth while! Really great thoughts here in this poem, thank you for sharing it.

Hi. A very nice expression of your thoughts and feelings about your poetic talents and works. Well so many of us in the website feel the same. But I think for more. I hope maybe a day I'll be among the great poets of the 21st century. But in order to achive this goal I have to study more and more. Anyway, thanks for sharing this poem. I'd be glad to know your comments on my poetry. Good Luck
It's all so true what you've said, in fact, that's the way to make it known! Well done, Francis!
Hello Francis. It's great to see such enthusiasm. Long may it continue.

I would like to translate this poem
Indeed: P there are more famous authors than poets, I can guess. Many are lovers of rhyme, but some prefer prose, free form, etc, etc... But this is a great poem! Well done, great job :) -W
