For As Long As I Live Till My Last Night And Day Poem by Francis Duggan

For as long as i live till my last night and day
My rhyming addiction perhaps with me to stay
I have been a rhymer since in my life's prime
And over four decades of years i have penned heaps of rhyme
It is something you may have heard me say before
That i do enjoy rhyming and little else more
I penned my first rhymes in nineteen seventy three
It was love of rhyme made a rhymer of me
My worth as a rhymer i may have reason to doubt
But never shortage of things for me to write about
And though my physical best days in life in the forever gone
I do enjoy rhyming and i will rhyme on
For as long as i live till the day i do die
If i did tell you different this would be a lie.
