Poet? I am not the greatest of Poets, Not when I think of Shelley and Keats. But I am the first to know it, When I try with them to compete. Or when I think of Wordsworth with his "Cloud Of Daffodills," He is the one that gives me the greatest of thrills. Then there is Edgar Allen Poe, a really great poet you know. To keep up with him I am much too slow. Dylan Thomas is a famous poet indeed, Some of his inspiration I would badly need. Now George Bernard Shaw, Has a real claim to fame, If I could write like him, It just would not be the same. For I myself write in rhyming verse, That does me somehow reimburse. So I think that I will remain the same, And lay no claim to fame, Just a would be bard, That finds writing very hard. © Bernard Shaw [log in to unmask] http://members.chello.at/bernard.shaw/poetry.html http://www.postpoems.com/members/bern/
