What Is Our Due Poem by Francis Duggan

What Is Our Due



Though i am not what one would call a literary success
The feelings i have in rhyming words i express
I've been called a poetaster but suppose i could have been called worse
A rhyming addiction is my life time's curse
I am one who has written a whole heap of stuff
And for many years i have been a rhyming buff
And though my worth as a rhymer i have reason to doubt
I am never short of things for to write about
It is true about poets they are born not made
Though all writers needed in the wordsmith trade
I used to daydream that i would be a poet
Or someone quite worthy of literary note
But daydreams are just that and seldom come true
And life only does give us what is our due.
