I am a semi-literate farm boy from the hills of KY.
Have been writing poetry since World War 2.and prefer
the rhyming verse form.I do a lot of thinking. Please join me and rate my thinking. Perhaps I protest to
much.
I sat before my desk last eve
To assess my current plight;
The things I see, you might agree,
Indicate a major blight.

We face the sunshine, storms and strife;
As seasons come, so they must go,
We are enjoined within that flow.

Glad to be on God's green earth?
One who holds no greedy plan,
Knowing wealth has no true worth.

O muse of mine please work with me,
Teach me to write simplisticly
And I shall seek no grander plan;
Just poetry for the common man.
