The Life's Journey For Me

The life's journey for me it has been uphill And many look on me as a bit of a dill For without monetary reward penning slipshod rhyme Which to most people does seem a huge waste of time So many in the World of today to money can only relate And to those of affluence look up to and celebrate For any task they perform money they demand And those who do things for enjoyment they do not understand I am one of many who live in a cocoon of self doubt Of rhyming and rhyme to others i do not talk about If you talk about rhyming to them most people look at you in a strange way Their body language tell you what in words they do not say Some four decades of years past my physical prime If i was interested in making money i would not be penning rhyme But it is something i enjoy doing the reason i write rhymes every day And what i enjoy doing why should i give away.
