The Caverwall Poet

A genius of words was the Caverwall poet Robert Buchanan one worthy of far greater literary note One who saw life to most in a different way He was a natural wordsmith of him one can say Such marvellous poetry he did create And his literary output to say the least great In life and in death as a poet he is not well known Though as a wordsmith he remains in a class of his own He was a person of enlightened mind Yet life to him it did not seem at all kind Having this said writers who grow wealthy from writing are few And this is not saying anything that is new With the wealthy and influential he never supped wine And though today his poems live on in books and can be seen His is not considered a great literary name And is a writer who desreves a far greater fame One almost forgotten in the literary World of today Yet in my estimation a great poet anyway One who in his great poetry is worthy of recall He does not have many equals the Poet of Caverwall.
