Till The Day Poem by Francis Duggan

I do leave the honorable title of poet
To those who feel worthy of literary note
A title that comes with high public esteem
That many lay claim to or so it does seem
A rhymer at best is the best i can be
There are not literary titles for one such as me
For forty four years i have been penning rhyme
And this is going back many Seasons in time
Back when i hoped for to become a renowned literary name
But few writers ever know of widespread literary fame
And since it is something i do without money for pay
Some advise me that i ought to give it away
But if i told them i will this would be a lie
Since i hope to be doing it till the day i do die.
