True Poets Are Born

Anyone can do it you can have that from me To rhyme is so easy as easy as can be And though poetasters are many true poets are few Am i telling you anything here that is new After the last breath of life from their bodies have gone The poems of the true poets for centuries live on A poem lives for centuries a jingle lives for a day The cream rises to the top as the wise one did say Though everyone needed in the Wordsmith Trade True poets are born and cannot be made And though many lay claim to the title of poet Few enjoy the fame of widespread literary note I am a mere rhymer my type are not rare Of my capabilities i am aware.
