Were I Born A Poet

Were i born a poet i would write poems about A soft breeze at morning blowing with a freshening mouth And the pleasant flute like warbling in the magpie's song A voice from once heard one will never again get wrong Were i born a poet i would write poems of the homeless of the street Who every day life's toughest challenge are obliged for to meet The test of survival they face every day My homage to them in a poem i would pay Were i born a poet i would write poems of the rill That babbles downland from it's source by the hill To the big river that journeys to the ocean shore In a distinctive voice of Nature that is forever more Were i born a poet poems to Nature i would write That lovers of poetry would feel happy to read and recite But poets are not many as most would agree And an ordinary rhymer is the best i can be.
