I'Ve Been Told By Some Poem by Francis Duggan

I've been told by some I've been wasting my time
In the penning of far too much doggerel rhyme
That as at writing as such I will never succeed
But even good advice I am not one to heed
My best days in life to the forever gone
And I must be addictive for to keep penning on
But for many years now I have been a rhyme buff
And I do find pleasure in penning of stuff
What I pen in print would not readily sell
But like all others I too have stories to tell,
There are millions if not billions in the Wordsmith trade
But only a minority can hope for to make the grade
Since pleasure and joy out of it is my gain
The love of penning stuff I will surely retain.
