I Have Written Rhymes

I have written rhymes of the birds and the bees of animals and flowers and of bushes and trees And people on my travels i have met or known My rhymes come from me and them i will not disown One addicted to rhyming i well may be It was my love of rhyme made a rhymer of me I add to my numbers of rhymes every day As a rhymer i live and as a rhymer i will stay With rhyme words i am one who does love to play I will rhyme till life's reaper comes reaping my way In the world of literature rhymers not to the fore And the literary critics my sort do ignore And though the best years of my life in the forever gone For as long as i can do i will be rhyming on.
