POET NEVER DIES
BY: MELVIN BANGGOLLAY


Poets of all walks of life the world had seen
May rest their laurels to end their own being
but their spirit through their works will remain
Touching, reminding, loving and inspiring.

The words of Shakespeare's tongue so keen
Inspired thy soul to write my heart's feelings
Even if he'd been turned to dust and unseen
The blood of his pen inspired my imagining.

Edgar Allan Poe's great poem Anabelle Lee
About their love's magic like a fire burning
Touched my heart with passion for my Violy
Whose love kept my life alive and marching.

When my time will come to rest my dear mind
To face the creator of my own humble being
The magic of thy thought will always remind
That once, footprints of my pen, left a sting.
