Apology For My Ignorance



.........................................Apology for my ignorance
What is it with this starting verse?
Standing all alone on the far right of my poem?
And is trying hard to duplicate my poem's title below!

Apology for My Ignorance

Pardon me if I cannot find the clues,
In each jigsaw puzzle made from words.
My eyes are weary and I can't seem to
Solve the algebra equations in poetry.
Could some one please enlighten me?
Have I been on the wrong path all along?
For English is not my mother tongue.
Should I change my opening line position?
From the extreme right, to the left side of my poem
No pun here intended, for my leaning has been to the left,
I help the blindfolded lady balance the scale of justice.
No insult meant by this comment on my part.
My eyes like my heart are having difficulty
Zigzagging through someone else's righteous field of vision,
Have pity on this seeking soul of mine
And let me unwrap freely my poetic lines
No matter what the consequences are
And in spite of my use of incorrect grammar
That makes me look foolish at time, or being out of line,
Having heart after all is what really counts,
For God in his wisdom has given you and me
And all His creation a unique poetic voice.
